Upper estimate price exceeded by 40 %.
In October last year Christies in New York held the auction Prints and Multiples, which included the work Targets by Jasper Johns. The »bidding war« ended at USD 25,200.00 (€ 25,367.43), 40% above the upper estimate. 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 40 % übertroffen
Im Oktober letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Prints and Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Targets von Jasper Johns zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 25.200,00 (€ 25.367,43) und damit 40% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
