Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Flowers by Alex Katz was auctioned at Phillips in London in June last year. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 90,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 103,320.00 (€ 120,028.45). 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 leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Flowers von Alex Katz kam im Juni letzten Jahres bei Phillips in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 90.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 103.320,00 (€ 120.028,45) einen neuen Besitzer. 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).
