Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
In October 2021 Phillips in New York held the auction Editions & Works on Paper, which included the work Signal by Gene Davis. The »bidding war« ended at USD 2,520.00 (€ 2,181.44), 26% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gene Davis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Legato In Red in September 2019 with an auction result of USD 187,500.00 (€ 171,939.48).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Im Oktober 2021 führte Phillips in New York die Auktion Editions & Works on Paper durch, in der auch die Arbeit Signal von Gene Davis zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 2.520,00 (€ 2.181,44) und damit 26% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gene Davis erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Legato In Red im September 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 187.500,00 (€ 171.939,48).
