Upper estimate price exceeded by 31 %.
In May this year Bonhams held the auction Modern & Contemporary Prints & Multiples, which included the work Moonscape, from Landscapes by Roy Lichtenstein. The »bidding war« ended at USD 164,175.00 (€ 154,097.05), 31% above the upper estimate. 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 31 % übertroffen
Im Mai diesen Jahres führte Bonhams die Auktion Modern & Contemporary Prints & Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Moonscape, from Landscapes von Roy Lichtenstein zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 164.175,00 (€ 154.097,05) und damit 31% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
