Ploughing The Field

Found at Christies, Hong Kong
20th Century Art Day Sale, Lot 372
2. Dec - 2. Dec 2021
Estimate: 280.000 - 380.000 HKD
Price realised: 525.000 HKD
CHEONG SOO PIENG (1917-1983)
Ploughing The Field
signed in Chinese (lower middle); signed again and dated 'SOO PIENG 1965' (on the reverse)
oil on canvas
101.5 x 81 cm. (40 x 31 7⁄8 in.)
Painted in 1965

Upper estimate price exceeded by 38 %.

The work Ploughing The Field by Cheong Soo Pieng was sold in the 20th Century Art Day Sale auction at Christies in Hong Kong in December 2021. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 525,000.00 (€ 59,467.22), 38% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Cheong Soo Pieng achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nature's Inspiration in November this year with an auction result of HKD 11,507,000.00 (€ 1,350,289.70).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 38 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Ploughing The Field von Cheong Soo Pieng wurde im Dezember 2021 in der Auktion 20th Century Art Day Sale bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 525.000,00 (€ 59.467,22) und damit 38% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Cheong Soo Pieng erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nature's Inspiration im November diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 11.507.000,00 (€ 1.350.289,70).
