Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Alex Katz achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in January this year. In the Prints & Multiples | Live Online auction, the work Ursula, from a Suite of Prints Derived from the Painting Lincolnville Labor Day (1992) sold for USD 3,187.50 (€ 2,935.62) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,200.00. 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).

In der Auktion Prints & Multiples | Live Online wurde die Arbeit Ursula, from a Suite of Prints Derived from the Painting Lincolnville Labor Day (1992) für USD 3.187,50 (€ 2.935,62) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.200,00. 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).
