Despite a disappointment, a good price for Maxime Maufra
In November 2011 a collector was able to acquire the work Le Vent by Maxime Maufra for USD 266,500.00 (€ 198,097.08). This price was achieved in the auction Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 300,000.00 – 500,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, Le Vent is the most expensive artwork by Maxime Maufra that we have observed at auction so far.
