Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Sin título by Jesús Rafael Soto was sold in the Contemporary Day Auction auction at Sothebys in New York in November 2021. The »bidding war« ended at USD 472,500.00 (€ 418,623.19), 18% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jesús Rafael Soto - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Vibración Blanca, which sold at auction in May 2018 for USD 1,035,000.00 (€ 886,889.46).
