Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Evening Auction, which included the work Ominous Land by Philip Guston. The »bidding war« ended at USD 9,456,000.00 (€ 8,377,779.75), 18% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Philip Guston - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Strong Light, which sold at auction in November 2021 for USD 24,393,000.00 (€ 21,611,588.55).
