Upper estimate price exceeded by 66 %.
The work Leo, from the Leo Castelli 90th Birthday Portfolio by Jasper Johns was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in May last year. It achieved a price of USD 8,287.50 (€ 7,722.95), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 66%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jasper Johns achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Small False Start in November last year with an auction result of USD 55,350,000.00 (€ 53,618,134.26).

Die Arbeit Leo, from the Leo Castelli 90th Birthday Portfolio von Jasper Johns kam im Mai letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 8.287,50 (€ 7.722,95) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 66%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jasper Johns erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Small False Start im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 55.350.000,00 (€ 53.618.134,26).
