Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
In July last year Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Discoveries, which included the work Portrait Composition by George Condo. The »bidding war« ended at USD 75,600.00 (€ 74,103.12), 26% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Condo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nude and Forms in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 6,162,500.00 (€ 5,280,634.10).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Im Juli letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Discoveries durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Composition von George Condo zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 75.600,00 (€ 74.103,12) und damit 26% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Condo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nude and Forms im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 6.162.500,00 (€ 5.280.634,10).
