Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Colored Paper Image XVIII (Green Square with Dark Gray) by Ellsworth Kelly was sold in the Contemporary Edition auction at Christies in July this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 12,600.00 (€ 11,433.76) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. 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).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Colored Paper Image XVIII (Green Square with Dark Gray) von Ellsworth Kelly wurde im Juli diesen Jahres in der Auktion Contemporary Edition bei Christies versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 12.600,00 (€ 11.433,76) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. 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).
