Upper estimate price exceeded by 68 %.
In December 2021 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Modern Art Online: From Le Pho to Sanyu, which included the work (i) Birds and flowers by Chen Wen Hsi. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 252,000.00 (€ 28,544.27), 68% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chen Wen Hsi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pasar (Market) in October 2013 with an auction result of HKD 13,240,000.00 (€ 1,256,407.24).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 68 % übertroffen
Im Dezember 2021 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Modern Art Online: From Le Pho to Sanyu durch, in der auch die Arbeit (i) Birds and flowers von Chen Wen Hsi zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 252.000,00 (€ 28.544,27) und damit 68% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chen Wen Hsi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pasar (Market) im Oktober 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 13.240.000,00 (€ 1.256.407,24).
