Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Frank Stella achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in June this year. In the Prints and Multiples auction, the work Les Indes Galantes II sold for GBP 4,864.00 (€ 5,660.86) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frank Stella achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Point Of Pines in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 28,082,500.00 (€ 25,188,357.70).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Frank Stella erzielte im Juni diesen Jahres bei Bonhams einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Prints and Multiples wurde die Arbeit Les Indes Galantes II für GBP 4.864,00 (€ 5.660,86) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frank Stella erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Point Of Pines im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 28.082.500,00 (€ 25.188.357,70).
