Upper estimate price exceeded by 63 %.
The work Black Pond (S. 231, P. 21) by Alex Katz was auctioned at Phillips in New York in October this year. It achieved a price of USD 4,064.00 (€ 3,845.57), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 63%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alex Katz achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Blue Umbrella I in October 2019 with an auction result of GBP 3,375,000.00 (€ 3,914,757.96).
