Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Helen Frankenthaler achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in London in October last year. In the Post-War & Contemporary Art auction, the work without title sold for GBP 38,100.00 (€ 44,386.08) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 15,000.00. 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).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Helen Frankenthaler erzielte im Oktober letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art wurde diese Arbeit ohne Titel für GBP 38.100,00 (€ 44.386,08) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 15.000,00. 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).
