This artwork by Theodoros Stamos achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in December 2021. In the First Open Online: Post War & Contemporary Art auction, the work Grotto sold for USD 4,000.00 (€ 3,534.19) - well above the upper estimate of USD 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Theodoros Stamos achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Divide in November 2013 with an auction result of USD 437,000.00 (€ 321,181.83).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 100 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Theodoros Stamos erzielte im Dezember 2021 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion First Open Online: Post War & Contemporary Art wurde die Arbeit Grotto für USD 4.000,00 (€ 3.534,19) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Theodoros Stamos erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Divide im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 437.000,00 (€ 321.181,83).
