Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November last year Christies in New York held the auction A Graphic Century including French Impressions: Prints from Ambroise Vollard and Henri M. Petiet, which included the work Fish and Sky, from Ten from Leo Castelli by Roy Lichtenstein. Here, the upper estimate of USD 6,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 6,300.00 (€ 6,102.88). 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 leicht übertroffen
Im November letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion A Graphic Century including French Impressions: Prints from Ambroise Vollard and Henri M. Petiet durch, in der auch die Arbeit Fish and Sky, from Ten from Leo Castelli von Roy Lichtenstein zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 6.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 6.300,00 (€ 6.102,88) einen neuen Besitzer. 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).
