Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Yggdrasil by Anselm Kiefer was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May last year. The price achieved of USD 113,400.00 (€ 105,675.15) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Anselm Kiefer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Für Velimir Khlebnikov: Die Lehre vom Krieg: Seeschlachten in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 2,389,000.00 (€ 2,867,579.59).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Yggdrasil von Anselm Kiefer kam im Mai letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 113.400,00 (€ 105.675,15) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 100.000,00 – 150.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Anselm Kiefer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Für Velimir Khlebnikov: Die Lehre vom Krieg: Seeschlachten im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.389.000,00 (€ 2.867.579,59).
