Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Forgetting by Matthew Wong was auctioned at Christies in October 2021. Here, the upper estimate of USD 120,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 125,000.00 (€ 108,206.37). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Matthew Wong achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Night Watcher in May last year with an auction result of USD 5,897,150.00 (€ 5,495,433.79).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Forgetting von Matthew Wong kam im Oktober 2021 bei Christies zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 120.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 125.000,00 (€ 108.206,37) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Matthew Wong erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Night Watcher im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.897.150,00 (€ 5.495.433,79).
