Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Grace Hartigan achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in September 2021. In the A Graphic Dialogue: Prints from the Collection of Lois B. Torf Online auction, the work The Hero Leaves His Ship III (Ship) sold for USD 3,750.00 (€ 3,239.18) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Grace Hartigan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Early November in May last year with an auction result of USD 1,380,000.00 (€ 1,285,993.85).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Grace Hartigan erzielte im September 2021 bei Christies einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion A Graphic Dialogue: Prints from the Collection of Lois B. Torf Online wurde die Arbeit The Hero Leaves His Ship III (Ship) für USD 3.750,00 (€ 3.239,18) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Grace Hartigan erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Early November im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.380.000,00 (€ 1.285.993,85).
