Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2015 Christies in New York held the auction Post-War and Contemporary Art Afternoon Session, which included this untitled work by Jean-Michel Basquiat. The price achieved of USD 245,000.00 (€ 231,963.64) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 200,000.00 – 300,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jean-Michel Basquiat achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in May 2017 with an auction result of USD 110,487,500.00 (€ 98,333,481.67).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2015 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Post-War and Contemporary Art Afternoon Session durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Jean-Michel Basquiat zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 245.000,00 (€ 231.963,64) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jean-Michel Basquiat erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im Mai 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 110.487.500,00 (€ 98.333.481,67).
