Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Cityscape #3 by Richard Diebenkorn was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Art Evening Sale auction at Christies in New York in May 2018. The price achieved of USD 5,262,500.00 (€ 4,509,425.88) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000,000.00 – 6,000,000.00. Admittedly, works by Richard Diebenkorn have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Recollections of a Visit to Leningrad in November this year with an auction result of USD 46,410,000.00 (€ 42,546,754.68).
