Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Chuck Close achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in New York in May last year. In the Modern & Contemporary Prints & Multiples auction, the work Cecily sold for USD 75,975.00 (€ 70,799.55) - well above the upper estimate of USD 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chuck Close achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Gwynne in May 2004 with an auction result of USD 2,807,500.00 (€ 2,298,027.34).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Chuck Close erzielte im Mai letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern & Contemporary Prints & Multiples wurde die Arbeit Cecily für USD 75.975,00 (€ 70.799,55) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chuck Close erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Gwynne im Mai 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.807.500,00 (€ 2.298.027,34).
