Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2021 Sothebys in Paris held the auction Art Contemporain Evening Sale, which included the work Store front (Project) by Christo. The price achieved of EUR 94,500.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Christo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Umbrellas (Joint project for Japan and USA) in February 2021 with an auction result of EUR 1,706,500.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2021 führte Sothebys in Paris die Auktion Art Contemporain Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Store front (Project) von Christo zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von EUR 94.500,00 lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit EUR 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Christo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Umbrellas (Joint project for Japan and USA) im Februar 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 1.706.500,00.
