Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Julian Opie achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in July this year. In the Contemporary Edition auction, the work Modern Towers 1 sold for USD 8,190.00 (€ 7,431.94) - well above the upper estimate of USD 4,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Julian Opie achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Walking in London in the rain in June last year with an auction result of CHF 189,000.00 (€ 189,036.11).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Julian Opie erzielte im Juli diesen Jahres bei Christies einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Contemporary Edition wurde die Arbeit Modern Towers 1 für USD 8.190,00 (€ 7.431,94) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 4.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Julian Opie erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Walking in London in the rain im Juni letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von CHF 189.000,00 (€ 189.036,11).
