Sold at the upper estimate price
In July 2021 Christies in London held the auction Post War and Contemporary Art Day Sale, which included the work Untitled (West Side) by Kehinde Wiley. The auction ended at the price of GBP 60,000.00 (€ 70,362.44), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Admittedly, works by Kehinde Wiley have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Virgin Martyr St. Cecilia in November 2021 with an auction result of USD 649,200.00 (€ 575,174.98).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Im Juli 2021 führte Christies in London die Auktion Post War and Contemporary Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (West Side) von Kehinde Wiley zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 60.000,00 (€ 70.362,44) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Kehinde Wiley auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Virgin Martyr St. Cecilia im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 649.200,00 (€ 575.174,98).
