Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Profile/Part I, The Twenties: Mecklenburg County, Liza in High Cotton by Romare Bearden was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale auction at Christies in New York in May last year. Here, the upper estimate of USD 350,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 352,800.00 (€ 328,767.12). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Romare Bearden - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Street, which sold at auction in November 2021 for USD 1,109,000.00 (€ 982,546.29).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Profile/Part I, The Twenties: Mecklenburg County, Liza in High Cotton von Romare Bearden wurde im Mai letzten Jahres in der Auktion Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 350.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 352.800,00 (€ 328.767,12) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Romare Bearden mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Street beobachtet, die im November 2021 für USD 1.109.000,00 (€ 982.546,29) versteigert wurde.
