Auction result well in line with expectations
In May last year Phillips in New York held the auction 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale, which included the work She was learning to love moments, to love moments for themselves by Amy Sherald. The price achieved of USD 1,482,000.00 (€ 1,381,045.57) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,200,000.00 – 1,800,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Amy Sherald - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Bathers, which sold at auction in December 2020 for USD 4,265,000.00 (€ 3,487,326.25).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai letzten Jahres führte Phillips in New York die Auktion 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit She was learning to love moments, to love moments for themselves von Amy Sherald zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.482.000,00 (€ 1.381.045,57) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.200.000,00 – 1.800.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Amy Sherald mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Bathers beobachtet, die im Dezember 2020 für USD 4.265.000,00 (€ 3.487.326,25) versteigert wurde.
