Auction result well in line with expectations
The work No. 164 by Chu Teh-Chun was auctioned at Phillips in Hong Kong in October this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 6,000,000.00 – 10,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 6,350,000.00 (€ 767,912.57) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chu Teh-Chun achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Harmonie Hivernale in April 2021 with an auction result of HKD 229,568,000.00 (€ 24,578,851.54).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit No. 164 von Chu Teh-Chun kam im Oktober diesen Jahres bei Phillips in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 6.000.000,00 – 10.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 6.350.000,00 (€ 767.912,57) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chu Teh-Chun erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Harmonie Hivernale im April 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 229.568.000,00 (€ 24.578.851,54).
