Upper estimate price exceeded by 51 %.
The work Green Glove Rapist by Robert Colescott was sold in the Contemporary Art Evening Sale auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2021. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 3,780,000.00 (€ 404,708.23), 51% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Colescott achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work George Washington Carver Crossing The Delaware: Page From An American History Textbook in May 2021 with an auction result of USD 15,315,900.00 (€ 12,560,193.54).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 51 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Green Glove Rapist von Robert Colescott wurde im April 2021 in der Auktion Contemporary Art Evening Sale bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 3.780.000,00 (€ 404.708,23) und damit 51% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Colescott erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit George Washington Carver Crossing The Delaware: Page From An American History Textbook im Mai 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 15.315.900,00 (€ 12.560.193,54).
