Upper estimate price exceeded by 49 %.
The work Happy Butterfly Days by Andy Warhol was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in August last year. It achieved a price of USD 4,462.50 (€ 4,433.68), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 49%. 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 um 49 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Happy Butterfly Days von Andy Warhol kam im August letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 4.462,50 (€ 4.433,68) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 49%. 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).
