Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Chevyblobs by Kenny Scharf was auctioned at Christies in London in July last year. The price achieved of GBP 37,800.00 (€ 45,139.91) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Kenny Scharf achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work City of the Future in May last year with an auction result of USD 983,175.00 (€ 916,200.73).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Chevyblobs von Kenny Scharf kam im Juli letzten Jahres bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 37.800,00 (€ 45.139,91) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Kenny Scharf erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit City of the Future im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 983.175,00 (€ 916.200,73).
