Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Untitled (From Passing...) by Kehinde Wiley was worth USD 275,000.00 (€ 225,520.75) to a buyer in May 2021. This price was achieved in the auction Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 70,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Kehinde Wiley - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Virgin Martyr St. Cecilia, which sold at auction in November 2021 for USD 649,200.00 (€ 575,174.98).
