A top price for Maya Lin - as previously expected
The work Blue Wave by Maya Lin was sold in the Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale auction at Christies in New York in November last year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 15,120.00 (€ 14,646.90) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Blue Wave is the most expensive artwork by Maya Lin that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Blue Wave von Maya Lin wurde im November letzten Jahres in der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 15.120,00 (€ 14.646,90) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Blue Wave das teuerste Kunstwerk von Maya Lin, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
