Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Jonquils I by Georgia O'Keeffe was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2020. The result of USD 4,000,000.00 (€ 3,434,360.78) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 4,000,000.00 – 6,000,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Georgia O'Keeffe achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1 in November 2014 with an auction result of USD 44,405,000.00 (€ 35,701,077.34).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Jonquils I von Georgia O'Keeffe kam im Oktober 2020 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 4.000.000,00 (€ 3.434.360,78) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000.000,00 – 6.000.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Georgia O'Keeffe erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1 im November 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 44.405.000,00 (€ 35.701.077,34).
