Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Arshile Gorky achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May 2019. In the Post-War and Contemporary Art Morning Session auction, the work Still Life With Palette sold for USD 519,000.00 (€ 465,512.60) - well above the upper estimate of USD 200,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Arshile Gorky achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Charred Beloved I in November this year with an auction result of USD 23,410,000.00 (€ 21,461,312.80).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Arshile Gorky erzielte im Mai 2019 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Post-War and Contemporary Art Morning Session wurde die Arbeit Still Life With Palette für USD 519.000,00 (€ 465.512,60) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 200.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Arshile Gorky erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Charred Beloved I im November diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 23.410.000,00 (€ 21.461.312,80).
