Upper estimate price exceeded by 41 %.
The work Bird with Stars by Kiki Smith was auctioned at Phillips in New York in April last year. It achieved a price of USD 3,528.00 (€ 3,348.20), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 41%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Kiki Smith achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in November 2005 with an auction result of USD 284,800.00 (€ 241,560.64).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 41 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Bird with Stars von Kiki Smith kam im April letzten Jahres bei Phillips in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 3.528,00 (€ 3.348,20) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 41%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Kiki Smith erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im November 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 284.800,00 (€ 241.560,64).
