Auction result misses estimated price range
In June 2018 a collector was able to acquire the work Missing Dolly by Lin Yilin for USD 500.00 (€ 428.19). This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Chinese Art Online | No Reserve at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 4,000.00 – 8,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lin Yilin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Missing Dolly in September 2008 with an auction result of USD 46,875.00 (€ 33,289.54).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juni 2018 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Missing Dolly von Lin Yilin für USD 500,00 (€ 428,19) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Contemporary Chinese Art Online | No Reserve bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lin Yilin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Missing Dolly im September 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 46.875,00 (€ 33.289,54).
