Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Vu Cao Dam achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May this year. In the 20th Century Art Day Sale auction, the work Divinité (Divinity) sold for HKD 378,000.00 (€ 45,307.49) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 180,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Vu Cao Dam achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Femmes au bain (Women Bathing) in December 2020 with an auction result of HKD 8,050,000.00 (€ 849,100.57).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Vu Cao Dam erzielte im Mai diesen Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 20th Century Art Day Sale wurde die Arbeit Divinité (Divinity) für HKD 378.000,00 (€ 45.307,49) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 180.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Vu Cao Dam erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Femmes au bain (Women Bathing) im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 8.050.000,00 (€ 849.100,57).
