Upper estimate price exceeded by 46 %.
This work without title by Helen Frankenthaler was auctioned at Bonhams in London in October last year. It achieved a price of GBP 365,700.00 (€ 426,036.45), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 46%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Helen Frankenthaler achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Royal Fireworks in June 2020 with an auction result of USD 7,895,300.00 (€ 7,029,917.19).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 46 % übertroffen
Diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Helen Frankenthaler kam im Oktober letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 365.700,00 (€ 426.036,45) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 46%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Helen Frankenthaler erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Royal Fireworks im Juni 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.895.300,00 (€ 7.029.917,19).
