Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Obama Hope Gold by Shepard Fairey was sold in the The Artist’s Eye: The Collection of Tom Levine auction at Sothebys in New York in May 2021. Here, the upper estimate of USD 3,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 3,276.00 (€ 2,686.57). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Shepard Fairey achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Obama Hope in October 2020 with an auction result of USD 600,800.00 (€ 515,840.99).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Obama Hope Gold von Shepard Fairey wurde im Mai 2021 in der Auktion The Artist’s Eye: The Collection of Tom Levine bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 3.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 3.276,00 (€ 2.686,57) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Shepard Fairey erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Obama Hope im Oktober 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 600.800,00 (€ 515.840,99).
