A top price for I Dana - as previously expected
In September 2001 Christies in Singapore held the auction PRE-WAR BALINESE MODERNISTS: 1928-1942, which included the work Temple Festival by I Dana. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of SGD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of SGD 4,112.50 (€ 2,557.71) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Temple Festival is the most expensive artwork by I Dana that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im September 2001 führte Christies in Singapur die Auktion PRE-WAR BALINESE MODERNISTS: 1928-1942 durch, in der auch die Arbeit Temple Festival von I Dana zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von SGD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von SGD 4.112,50 (€ 2.557,71) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Temple Festival das teuerste Kunstwerk von I Dana, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
