The work The Poor and the Rich by George Grosz was sold in the Impressionist & Modern Works on Paper Sale auction at Christies in New York in November last year. It achieved a price of USD 81,900.00 (€ 79,337.40), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 64%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Grosz achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Gefährliche Straße in February 2020 with an auction result of GBP 9,740,250.00 (€ 11,288,971.84).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 64 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Poor and the Rich von George Grosz wurde im November letzten Jahres in der Auktion Impressionist & Modern Works on Paper Sale bei Christies in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 81.900,00 (€ 79.337,40) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 64%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Grosz erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Gefährliche Straße im Februar 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 9.740.250,00 (€ 11.288.971,84).
