Upper estimate price exceeded by 60 %.
In August this year Bonhams in New York held the auction Prints & MultiplesSummer Splash, which included the work Tetuan by Sean Scully. The »bidding war« ended at USD 4,800.00 (€ 4,428.45), 60% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sean Scully achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Song in May last year with an auction result of USD 2,046,500.00 (€ 1,907,091.60).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 60 % übertroffen
Im August diesen Jahres führte Bonhams in New York die Auktion Prints & MultiplesSummer Splash durch, in der auch die Arbeit Tetuan von Sean Scully zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 4.800,00 (€ 4.428,45) und damit 60% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sean Scully erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Song im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.046.500,00 (€ 1.907.091,60).
