Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Untitled (Virginia Landscape) by Arshile Gorky was sold in the Contemporary Art Evening Auction auction at Sothebys in New York in June 2020. It changed hands for a price of USD 956,000.00 (€ 851,215.39) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 600,000.00 – 1,000,000.00. 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).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
