Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Young Tuskahorian With Front View Of Head, Non Poisonous, All Countries, Blengiglomenean Is. by Henry Darger was sold in the Contemporary Art Day Auction auction at Sothebys in New York in November 2019. The »bidding war« ended at USD 60,000.00 (€ 54,451.40), 20% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Darger achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Sans Titre in December 2014 with an auction result of EUR 601,500.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Young Tuskahorian With Front View Of Head, Non Poisonous, All Countries, Blengiglomenean Is. von Henry Darger wurde im November 2019 in der Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 60.000,00 (€ 54.451,40) und damit 20% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry Darger erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Sans Titre im Dezember 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 601.500,00.
