Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Flowers by Andy Warhol was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2017. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 200,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 224,750.00 (€ 256,258.99). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Andy Warhol achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Shot Sage Blue Marilyn in May last year with an auction result of USD 195,040,000.00 (€ 181,753,797.41).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Flowers von Andy Warhol kam im Oktober 2017 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 200.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 224.750,00 (€ 256.258,99) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Andy Warhol erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Shot Sage Blue Marilyn im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 195.040.000,00 (€ 181.753.797,41).
