The work Zorro (Two Gestures and One Mark) by John Baldessari was auctioned at Christies in New York in July last year. It achieved a price of USD 1,638.00 (€ 1,605.57), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 37%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Baldessari achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Commissioned Painting: A Painting By Edgar Transue in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 2,517,000.00 (€ 1,845,307.92).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 37 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Zorro (Two Gestures and One Mark) von John Baldessari kam im Juli letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 1.638,00 (€ 1.605,57) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 37%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Baldessari erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Commissioned Painting: A Painting By Edgar Transue im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.517.000,00 (€ 1.845.307,92).
