Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Once in Life by Javier Calleja was sold in the 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale in association with Yongle auction at Phillips in Hong Kong in December last year. It achieved a price of HKD 4,410,000.00 (€ 528,474.48), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 16%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Javier Calleja - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work 30 works: Untitled, which sold at auction in November 2021 for HKD 12,108,000.00 (€ 1,346,286.88).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 4.410.000,00 (€ 528.474,48) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 16%. Für andere Arbeiten von Javier Calleja mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit 30 works: Untitled beobachtet, die im November 2021 für HKD 12.108.000,00 (€ 1.346.286,88) versteigert wurde.
