Upper estimate price exceeded by 27 %.
In January 2024 Phillips in London held the auction Evening & Day Editions, which included the work A Pyramid, from Portfolio for Joseph Beuys (K. 1986.03) by Sol LeWitt. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,540.00 (€ 4,251.09), 27% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sol LeWitt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Wavy Brushstrokes in July 2015 with an auction result of GBP 449,000.00 (€ 636,531.19).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 27 % übertroffen
Im Januar 2024 führte Phillips in London die Auktion Evening & Day Editions durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Pyramid, from Portfolio for Joseph Beuys (K. 1986.03) von Sol LeWitt zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 2.540,00 (€ 4.251,09) und damit 27% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sol LeWitt erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Wavy Brushstrokes im Juli 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 449.000,00 (€ 636.531,19).
