Upper estimate price exceeded by 39 %.
In April 2017 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Art, which included the work Under My Skin by Marina Cruz. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 250,000.00 (€ 29,508.95), 39% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Marina Cruz - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Blushed and Blemished, which sold at auction in May last year for HKD 630,000.00 (€ 74,794.52).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 39 % übertroffen
Im April 2017 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Under My Skin von Marina Cruz zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 250.000,00 (€ 29.508,95) und damit 39% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Marina Cruz mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Blushed and Blemished beobachtet, die im Mai letzten Jahres für HKD 630.000,00 (€ 74.794,52) versteigert wurde.
