Upper estimate price exceeded by 38 %.
In September last year Bonhams in Los Angeles held the auction Prints & Multiples, which included the work Monica Nude with Yellow Curtain by Tom Wesselmann. The »bidding war« ended at USD 8,287.50 (€ 8,471.33), 38% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Tom Wesselmann achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Great American Nude No. 48 in May 2008 with an auction result of USD 10,681,000.00 (€ 6,864,395.89).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 38 % übertroffen
Im September letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in Los Angeles die Auktion Prints & Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Monica Nude with Yellow Curtain von Tom Wesselmann zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 8.287,50 (€ 8.471,33) und damit 38% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Tom Wesselmann erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Great American Nude No. 48 im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 10.681.000,00 (€ 6.864.395,89).
