Upper estimate price exceeded by 39 %.
The work Chinese Opal (SF 101) (L. L111) by Sam Francis was auctioned at Phillips in New York in April last year. It achieved a price of USD 6,930.00 (€ 6,576.82), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 39%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sam Francis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Composition in Blue and Black in November last year with an auction result of USD 13,557,500.00 (€ 13,133,294.58).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 39 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Chinese Opal (SF 101) (L. L111) von Sam Francis kam im April letzten Jahres bei Phillips in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 6.930,00 (€ 6.576,82) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 39%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sam Francis erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Composition in Blue and Black im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 13.557.500,00 (€ 13.133.294,58).
