Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Howard Hodgkin achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in March this year. In the Contemporary Edition: New York: Featuring the Collection of Kenwal Steel in Support of GLAAD auction, the work The Sky's the Limit sold for USD 6,048.00 (€ 5,562.91) - well above the upper estimate of USD 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Howard Hodgkin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Goodbye to the Bay of Naples in October 2017 with an auction result of GBP 1,688,750.00 (€ 1,925,505.56).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Howard Hodgkin erzielte im März diesen Jahres bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Contemporary Edition: New York: Featuring the Collection of Kenwal Steel in Support of GLAAD wurde die Arbeit The Sky's the Limit für USD 6.048,00 (€ 5.562,91) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Howard Hodgkin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Goodbye to the Bay of Naples im Oktober 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.688.750,00 (€ 1.925.505,56).
