Upper estimate price exceeded by 75 %.
This artwork by Sarah Morris achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in London in July 2020. In the New Now auction, the work A Pair of Shell Chairs sold for GBP 5,250.00 (€ 5,855.98) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sarah Morris achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work "Paradigm (Los Angeles)" in May 2019 with an auction result of EUR 126,438.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Sarah Morris erzielte im Juli 2020 bei Phillips in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion New Now wurde die Arbeit A Pair of Shell Chairs für GBP 5.250,00 (€ 5.855,98) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sarah Morris erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit "Paradigm (Los Angeles)" im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 126.438,00.
