In May last year Christies in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work A Swamp in November by Wolf Kahn. The »bidding war« ended at USD 16,380.00 (€ 15,264.19), 37% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wolf Kahn achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Atlantic Highlands in November 2021 with an auction result of USD 212,500.00 (€ 188,269.69).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 37 % übertroffen
Im Mai letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Swamp in November von Wolf Kahn zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 16.380,00 (€ 15.264,19) und damit 37% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wolf Kahn erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Atlantic Highlands im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 212.500,00 (€ 188.269,69).
