Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
In April last year Christies in New York held the auction Photographs from the Richard Gere Collection, which included the work Naomi, Hawaii, 1989 by Herb Ritts. The »bidding war« ended at USD 7,560.00 (€ 7,174.72), 26% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Herb Ritts achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Versace Dress, Back View, El Mirage in May 2015 with an auction result of GBP 158,500.00 (€ 220,377.57).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Im April letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Photographs from the Richard Gere Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Naomi, Hawaii, 1989 von Herb Ritts zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 7.560,00 (€ 7.174,72) und damit 26% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Herb Ritts erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Versace Dress, Back View, El Mirage im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 158.500,00 (€ 220.377,57).
