ANDREW WYETH (1917-2009)
Blue Day
signed 'Andrew Wyeth' (lower right)
watercolor and pencil on paper
18 x 22 in. (45.7 x 55.9 cm.)
Wyeth, A.
Executed in 1942

Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Andrew Wyeth achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May this year. In the Impressionist and Modern Works on Paper Sale auction, the work Blue Day sold for USD 163,800.00 (€ 153,745.07) - well above the upper estimate of USD 80,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Andrew Wyeth achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Day Dream in November last year with an auction result of USD 23,290,000.00 (€ 22,561,270.95).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Andrew Wyeth erzielte im Mai diesen Jahres bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Impressionist and Modern Works on Paper Sale wurde die Arbeit Blue Day für USD 163.800,00 (€ 153.745,07) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 80.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Andrew Wyeth erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Day Dream im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 23.290.000,00 (€ 22.561.270,95).
