Auction result well in line with expectations

In November 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction The Now Evening Auction, which included the work Großer Geist Nr. 1 by Thomas Schütte. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 4,500,000.00 – 6,500,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 4,860,000.00 (€ 4,305,838.58) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by Thomas Schütte have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in May 2019 the work Grosser Geist Nr. 13 was auctioned for USD 5,275,600.00 (€ 4,731,904.21).
