Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Head in profile by Kim Heung Sou was sold in the Japanese and Korean Art auction at Christies in New York in March 2001. The price achieved of USD 4,700.00 (€ 5,344.55) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Kim Heung Sou achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Two figures) in September 2007 with an auction result of USD 313,000.00 (€ 220,128.00).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Head in profile von Kim Heung Sou wurde im März 2001 in der Auktion Japanese and Korean Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 4.700,00 (€ 5.344,55) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Kim Heung Sou erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (Two figures) im September 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 313.000,00 (€ 220.128,00).
