Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Serial Project (Set B) by Sol LeWitt was sold in the Post War and Contemporary Art Evening Sale auction at Christies in New York in November 2006. The price achieved of USD 374,400.00 (€ 282,331.65) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 300,000.00 – 400,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Sol LeWitt - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Wavy Brushstrokes, which sold at auction in July 2015 for GBP 449,000.00 (€ 636,531.19).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Serial Project (Set B) von Sol LeWitt wurde im November 2006 in der Auktion Post War and Contemporary Art Evening Sale bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 374.400,00 (€ 282.331,65) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 300.000,00 – 400.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Sol LeWitt mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Wavy Brushstrokes beobachtet, die im Juli 2015 für GBP 449.000,00 (€ 636.531,19) versteigert wurde.
