Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Banksy achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in New York in October 2021. In the Editions & Works on Paper auction, the work Happy Choppers sold for USD 56,700.00 (€ 49,082.41) - well above the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Banksy achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Love is in the Bin in October 2021 with an auction result of GBP 18,582,000.00 (€ 22,014,651.32).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Banksy erzielte im Oktober 2021 bei Phillips in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Editions & Works on Paper wurde die Arbeit Happy Choppers für USD 56.700,00 (€ 49.082,41) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 25.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Banksy erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Love is in the Bin im Oktober 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 18.582.000,00 (€ 22.014.651,32).
