Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Pittsburgh I; and Pittsburgh II by Eduardo Chillida was sold in the Important Prints & Multiples: Part II auction at Sothebys in New York in October 2021. Here, the upper estimate of USD 5,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 5,292.00 (€ 4,581.02). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Eduardo Chillida achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Rumor de Limites No. Vi in June 2006 with an auction result of GBP 2,024,000.00 (€ 2,928,694.26).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Pittsburgh I; and Pittsburgh II von Eduardo Chillida wurde im Oktober 2021 in der Auktion Important Prints & Multiples: Part II bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 5.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 5.292,00 (€ 4.581,02) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Eduardo Chillida erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Rumor de Limites No. Vi im Juni 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.024.000,00 (€ 2.928.694,26).
