Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Crab Catcher by Nguyen Phan Chanh was sold in the An Important Collection of Vietnamese Paintings Featuring The Philip Ng Collection auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2008. The price achieved of HKD 343,500.00 (€ 28,308.74) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 300,000.00 – 400,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nguyen Phan Chanh achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Les Couturières (Seamstresses at Work) in December 2020 with an auction result of HKD 10,930,000.00 (€ 1,152,878.17).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Crab Catcher von Nguyen Phan Chanh wurde im April 2008 in der Auktion An Important Collection of Vietnamese Paintings Featuring The Philip Ng Collection bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 343.500,00 (€ 28.308,74) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 300.000,00 – 400.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Nguyen Phan Chanh erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Les Couturières (Seamstresses at Work) im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 10.930.000,00 (€ 1.152.878,17).
