Upper estimate price exceeded by 75 %.
In November 2019 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Art Day Auction, which included the work Piggyback by Lisa Yuskavage. The »bidding war« ended at USD 524,000.00 (€ 475,542.25), 75% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lisa Yuskavage - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Studio, which sold at auction in May last year for USD 1,380,000.00 (€ 1,285,993.85).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
Im November 2019 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit Piggyback von Lisa Yuskavage zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 524.000,00 (€ 475.542,25) und damit 75% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Lisa Yuskavage mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Studio beobachtet, die im Mai letzten Jahres für USD 1.380.000,00 (€ 1.285.993,85) versteigert wurde.
