Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2010 Christies in New York held the auction Post-War and Contemporary Evening Sale, which included the work Self-Portrait by Andy Warhol. It changed hands for a price of USD 4,450,500.00 (€ 3,414,007.36) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 3,500,000.00 – 4,500,000.00. 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).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2010 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Post-War and Contemporary Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Self-Portrait von Andy Warhol zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 4.450.500,00 (€ 3.414.007,36) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 3.500.000,00 – 4.500.000,00. 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).
