Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
The work Placed by Christina Quarles was worth USD 400,000.00 (€ 339,731.61) to a buyer in July 2020. This price was achieved in the auction 20th Century and Contemporary Art Evening Sale at Phillips in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 100,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Christina Quarles achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Night Fell Upon Us Up On Us in May last year with an auction result of USD 4,527,000.00 (€ 4,218,618.95).
