Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
The work Companions (diptych) by Kiki Smith was sold in the Evening & Day Editions auction at Phillips in London in June last year. It achieved a price of GBP 10,080.00 (€ 11,710.09), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 26%. 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 26 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Companions (diptych) von Kiki Smith wurde im Juni letzten Jahres in der Auktion Evening & Day Editions bei Phillips in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 10.080,00 (€ 11.710,09) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 26%. 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).
