Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Numbers by Jasper Johns was auctioned at Christies in New York in November last year. The price achieved of USD 17,565,000.00 (€ 17,015,402.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 15,000,000.00 – 20,000,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jasper Johns - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Small False Start, which sold at auction in November last year for USD 55,350,000.00 (€ 53,618,134.26).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Numbers von Jasper Johns kam im November letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 17.565.000,00 (€ 17.015.402,50) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 15.000.000,00 – 20.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Jasper Johns mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Small False Start beobachtet, die im November letzten Jahres für USD 55.350.000,00 (€ 53.618.134,26) versteigert wurde.
