Upper estimate price exceeded by 79 %.
This artwork by Ellsworth Kelly achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in London in September last year. In the Evening & Day Editions auction, the work Blue with Black II (Gemini G.E.L. 534, A. 98) sold for GBP 10,710.00 (€ 12,189.02) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ellsworth Kelly achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Red Curve VII in November 2019 with an auction result of USD 9,809,000.00 (€ 8,901,896.72).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Ellsworth Kelly erzielte im September letzten Jahres bei Phillips in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Evening & Day Editions wurde die Arbeit Blue with Black II (Gemini G.E.L. 534, A. 98) für GBP 10.710,00 (€ 12.189,02) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ellsworth Kelly erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Red Curve VII im November 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 9.809.000,00 (€ 8.901.896,72).
