This artwork by Martha Walter achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in October 2013. In the American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture auction, the work A Line Of Beach Umbrellas sold for USD 22,500.00 (€ 16,551.42) - well above the upper estimate of USD 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Martha Walter achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pink Umbrella in September 2008 with an auction result of USD 266,500.00 (€ 189,262.13).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Martha Walter erzielte im Oktober 2013 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture wurde die Arbeit A Line Of Beach Umbrellas für USD 22.500,00 (€ 16.551,42) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Martha Walter erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pink Umbrella im September 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 266.500,00 (€ 189.262,13).
