The work Untitled (Cartoon for Centre Square, Philadelphia Banner) by Alexander Calder was sold in the 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale, Morning Session auction at Phillips in New York in May this year. It achieved a price of USD 69,850.00 (€ 65,562.23), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 75%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alexander Calder achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Poisson volant (Flying Fish) in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 25,925,000.00 (€ 19,006,598.24).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
