JASPER JOHNS (B. 1930) Painting with Two Balls I lithograph in colors, on Kochi paper, 1962, signed and dated in red colored pencil, numbered 3/39 (there were also three artist's proofs), published by Universal Art Limited Editions, West Islip, New York, with their blindstamp, with full margins Image: 20 3 ⁄ 8 × 16 1 ⁄ 2 in. (519 × 420 mm.) Sheet: 26 3 ⁄ 8 × 20 1 ⁄ 2 in. (670 × 520 mm.)
Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Jasper Johns achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in April this year. In the The Sale of the Century: An Important Corporate Collection of Prints and Multiples: Online auction, the work Painting with Two Balls I sold for USD 20,160.00 (€ 18,260.87) - well above the upper estimate of USD 10,000.00. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Jasper Johns erzielte im April diesen Jahres bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Sale of the Century: An Important Corporate Collection of Prints and Multiples: Online wurde die Arbeit Painting with Two Balls I für USD 20.160,00 (€ 18.260,87) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 10.000,00. 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).
