The life of STAN, a T-rex excavated in 1992
STAN will be offered on 6 October in the 20th Century Evening Sale at Christie’s in New York
‘a once in a generation chance’,
according to Hyslop. ‘
There simply aren’t T. rexes like this coming to market.
It’s an incredibly rare event when a great one is found.
‘It is such an iconic piece of the 20th century, and fits so well in the context we are offering it.’
Archetype, movie star, pop-culture celebrity, it is fitting that STAN will make his auction debut alongside masterpieces of modern and contemporary art.
