Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2018 Phillips in London held the auction 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale, which included this untitled work by David Hammons. The price achieved of GBP 309,000.00 (€ 348,456.67) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 250,000.00 – 350,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Hammons achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in November 2013 with an auction result of USD 8,005,000.00 (€ 5,883,433.78).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2018 führte Phillips in London die Auktion 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von David Hammons zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 309.000,00 (€ 348.456,67) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 250.000,00 – 350.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von David Hammons erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 8.005.000,00 (€ 5.883.433,78).
