Auction result well in line with expectations
In March last year Sothebys in London held the auction Modern & Contemporary Evening Auction, which included this untitled work by Jean-Michel Basquiat. The price achieved of GBP 3,302,000.00 (€ 3,914,892.63) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,600,000.00 – 3,600,000.00. 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 März letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Modern & Contemporary Evening Auction durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Jean-Michel Basquiat zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.302.000,00 (€ 3.914.892,63) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.600.000,00 – 3.600.000,00 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).
