Upper estimate price exceeded by 40 %.
The work Cubist Cello by Roy Lichtenstein was auctioned at Bonhams in London in June last year. It achieved a price of GBP 28,020.00 (€ 32,551.27), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 40%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Roy Lichtenstein achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nurse in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 95,365,000.00 (€ 90,290,664.65).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 40 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Cubist Cello von Roy Lichtenstein kam im Juni letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 28.020,00 (€ 32.551,27) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 40%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Roy Lichtenstein erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nurse im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 95.365.000,00 (€ 90.290.664,65).
