Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November last year Christies in New York held the auction A Graphic Century including French Impressions: Prints from Ambroise Vollard and Henri M. Petiet, which included the work Vanish by Ed Ruscha. The »bidding war« ended at USD 21,420.00 (€ 20,749.78), 19% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ed Ruscha achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hurting the Word Radio #2 in November 2019 with an auction result of USD 52,485,000.00 (€ 47,631,364.01).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im November letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion A Graphic Century including French Impressions: Prints from Ambroise Vollard and Henri M. Petiet durch, in der auch die Arbeit Vanish von Ed Ruscha zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 21.420,00 (€ 20.749,78) und damit 19% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ed Ruscha erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hurting the Word Radio #2 im November 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 52.485.000,00 (€ 47.631.364,01).
