Upper estimate price exceeded by 63 %.
The work Larry by Robert Mapplethorpe was sold in the Photographs auction at Phillips in New York in October this year. It achieved a price of USD 11,430.00 (€ 10,815.67), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 63%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Mapplethorpe achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Self-Portrait in October 2017 with an auction result of GBP 548,750.00 (€ 625,682.41).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 63 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Larry von Robert Mapplethorpe wurde im Oktober diesen Jahres in der Auktion Photographs bei Phillips in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 11.430,00 (€ 10.815,67) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 63%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Mapplethorpe erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Self-Portrait im Oktober 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 548.750,00 (€ 625.682,41).
