This artwork by Bert Stern achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in May 2016. In the Photographs auction, the work David Bailey, Veruschka, 1965 sold for GBP 4,375.00 (€ 5,708.91) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 2,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bert Stern achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Marilyn Monroe, 'The Last Sitting', 1962, an exhibition presented at seventh 'Mois de la Photo à Paris', 1992 in December 2008 with an auction result of USD 146,500.00 (€ 105,251.81).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Bert Stern erzielte im Mai 2016 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Photographs wurde die Arbeit David Bailey, Veruschka, 1965 für GBP 4.375,00 (€ 5.708,91) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 2.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bert Stern erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Marilyn Monroe, 'The Last Sitting', 1962, an exhibition presented at seventh 'Mois de la Photo à Paris', 1992 im Dezember 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 146.500,00 (€ 105.251,81).
