Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October this year Bonhams in London held the auction Prints & Multiples, which included the work Phil (Anamorphic) by Chuck Close. The »bidding war« ended at USD 10,880.00 (€ 10,295.23), 21% above the upper estimate. 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 leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober diesen Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Prints & Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Phil (Anamorphic) von Chuck Close zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 10.880,00 (€ 10.295,23) und damit 21% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
