Upper estimate price exceeded by 96 %.
This artwork by Ana Mendieta achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in April 2019. In the Photographs auction, the work Volcán sold for USD 13,750.00 (€ 12,275.69) - well above the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ana Mendieta achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (From the Fetish Series) in February 2008 with an auction result of GBP 102,500.00 (€ 134,065.98).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Ana Mendieta erzielte im April 2019 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Photographs wurde die Arbeit Volcán für USD 13.750,00 (€ 12.275,69) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ana Mendieta erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (From the Fetish Series) im Februar 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 102.500,00 (€ 134.065,98).
