Upper estimate price exceeded by 63 %.
The work Study for Pause Café by Ernie Barnes was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in August last year. It achieved a price of USD 40,695.00 (€ 40,432.19), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 63%. 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 63 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Study for Pause Café von Ernie Barnes kam im August letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 40.695,00 (€ 40.432,19) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 63%. 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).
