Upper estimate price exceeded by 51 %.
In June last year Phillips in New York held the auction Editions Southampton, which included the work Nude Reading, from Nudes series (C. 288) by Roy Lichtenstein. The »bidding war« ended at USD 226,800.00 (€ 216,639.60), 51% 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 51 % übertroffen
Im Juni letzten Jahres führte Phillips in New York die Auktion Editions Southampton durch, in der auch die Arbeit Nude Reading, from Nudes series (C. 288) von Roy Lichtenstein zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 226.800,00 (€ 216.639,60) und damit 51% 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).
