Upper estimate price exceeded by 39 %.
In May last year Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Day Auction, which included the work String of Perils by John Chamberlain. The »bidding war« ended at USD 277,200.00 (€ 258,317.03), 39% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Chamberlain achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nutcracker in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 5,534,300.00 (€ 4,742,330.76).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 39 % übertroffen
Im Mai letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Day Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit String of Perils von John Chamberlain zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 277.200,00 (€ 258.317,03) und damit 39% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Chamberlain erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nutcracker im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.534.300,00 (€ 4.742.330,76).
