Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.
The work La Primavera (Spring) (SFE-070RC) by Sam Francis was auctioned at Christies in New York in March this year. It achieved a price of USD 8,820.00 (€ 8,112.58), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 47%. 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 47 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit La Primavera (Spring) (SFE-070RC) von Sam Francis kam im März diesen Jahres bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 8.820,00 (€ 8.112,58) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 47%. 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).
