Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Study for Warhol Flowers by Elaine Sturtevant was sold in the Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale auction at Christies in New York in October 2020. The auction ended at the price of USD 150,000.00 (€ 128,788.53), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Elaine Sturtevant achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Warhol Diptych in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 5,093,000.00 (€ 4,632,526.83).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Study for Warhol Flowers von Elaine Sturtevant wurde im Oktober 2020 in der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 150.000,00 (€ 128.788,53) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 100.000,00 – 150.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Elaine Sturtevant erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Warhol Diptych im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.093.000,00 (€ 4.632.526,83).
