Upper estimate price exceeded by 52 %.
The work Blue Umbrella 2 by Alex Katz was sold in the Editions & Works on Paper auction at Phillips in New York in October this year. It achieved a price of USD 76,200.00 (€ 72,104.47), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 52%. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 52 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Blue Umbrella 2 von Alex Katz wurde im Oktober diesen Jahres in der Auktion Editions & Works on Paper bei Phillips in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 76.200,00 (€ 72.104,47) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 52%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alex Katz erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Blue Umbrella I im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.375.000,00 (€ 3.914.757,96).
