Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
The work City Ball 1986 by Ernie Barnes was sold in the Post-War & Contemporary Art auction at Bonhams in New York in November last year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 201,975.00 (€ 195,655.33), 35% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ernie Barnes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Sugar Shack in May last year with an auction result of USD 15,275,000.00 (€ 14,234,460.91).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit City Ball 1986 von Ernie Barnes wurde im November letzten Jahres in der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art bei Bonhams in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 201.975,00 (€ 195.655,33) und damit 35% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ernie Barnes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Sugar Shack im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 15.275.000,00 (€ 14.234.460,91).
