Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Reclining Lady (Painted From 1920S To 1930S) by Sanyu was sold in the Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art auction at China Guardian in Hong Kong in April this year. It changed hands for a price of HKD 264,000.00 (€ 269,595.65) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of HKD 180,000.00 – 280,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sanyu achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Five Nudes in November 2019 with an auction result of HKD 303,985,000.00 (€ 35,256,632.18).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Reclining Lady (Painted From 1920S To 1930S) von Sanyu wurde im April diesen Jahres in der Auktion Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art bei China Guardian in Hong Kong versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von HKD 264.000,00 (€ 269.595,65) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 180.000,00 – 280.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sanyu erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Five Nudes im November 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 303.985.000,00 (€ 35.256.632,18).
