Upper estimate price exceeded by 73 %.
The work Untitled (Large Ocean) by Vija Celmins was auctioned at Christies in New York in April this year. It achieved a price of USD 60,480.00 (€ 54,782.61), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 73%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Vija Celmins achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Ocean) in June 2021 with an auction result of USD 7,748,000.00 (€ 6,539,500.34).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 73 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Untitled (Large Ocean) von Vija Celmins kam im April diesen Jahres bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 60.480,00 (€ 54.782,61) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 73%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Vija Celmins erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (Ocean) im Juni 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.748.000,00 (€ 6.539.500,34).
