Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work America-La France Variations VIII (B. 304; E. and B. 336) by Robert Motherwell was sold in the Prints and Multiples auction at Christies in New York in February 2005. Here, the upper estimate of USD 4,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 4,560.00 (€ 3,435.29). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Motherwell achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work At Five in the Afternoon in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 12,690,000.00 (€ 10,874,035.99).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit America-La France Variations VIII (B. 304; E. and B. 336) von Robert Motherwell wurde im Februar 2005 in der Auktion Prints and Multiples bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 4.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 4.560,00 (€ 3.435,29) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Motherwell erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit At Five in the Afternoon im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 12.690.000,00 (€ 10.874.035,99).
