Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2020 Sothebys in Milan held the auction Contemporary Art | Milan, which included the work I Luoghi Invisibili by Maria Lai. The price achieved of EUR 63,000.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Maria Lai - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Lenzuolo (Bed Sheet), which sold at auction in October 2018 for GBP 150,000.00 (€ 169,153.72).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2020 führte Sothebys in Mailand die Auktion Contemporary Art | Milan durch, in der auch die Arbeit I Luoghi Invisibili von Maria Lai zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von EUR 63.000,00 lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit EUR 50.000,00 – 70.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Maria Lai mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Lenzuolo (Bed Sheet) beobachtet, die im Oktober 2018 für GBP 150.000,00 (€ 169.153,72) versteigert wurde.
