Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2017 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Asian 20th Century Art (Day Sale), which included the work PORTRAIT by Shiy De-Jinn. The price achieved of HKD 2,100,000.00 (€ 239,791.74) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 1,680,000.00 – 3,000,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Shiy De-Jinn - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Young Girl, which sold at auction in October 2016 for HKD 5,480,000.00 (€ 644,882.32).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2017 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Asian 20th Century Art (Day Sale) durch, in der auch die Arbeit PORTRAIT von Shiy De-Jinn zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 2.100.000,00 (€ 239.791,74) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 1.680.000,00 – 3.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Shiy De-Jinn mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Young Girl beobachtet, die im Oktober 2016 für HKD 5.480.000,00 (€ 644.882,32) versteigert wurde.
