Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Ancient Castle In Spain by Liao Chi-Chun was sold in the 20th Century Chinese Art auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2010. The price achieved of HKD 14,100,000.00 (€ 1,309,126.24) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 12,000,000.00 – 20,000,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Liao Chi-Chun - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Garden, which sold at auction in May 2008 for HKD 35,047,500.00 (€ 2,885,337.24).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Ancient Castle In Spain von Liao Chi-Chun wurde im Oktober 2010 in der Auktion 20th Century Chinese Art bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 14.100.000,00 (€ 1.309.126,24) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 12.000.000,00 – 20.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Liao Chi-Chun mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Garden beobachtet, die im Mai 2008 für HKD 35.047.500,00 (€ 2.885.337,24) versteigert wurde.
