Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Face of the Believer by Wang Guangyi was auctioned at Bonhams in October 2021. The price achieved of HKD 31,875.00 (€ 3,545.65) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 25,000.00 – 45,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wang Guangyi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Mao AO in October 2007 with an auction result of GBP 2,036,000.00 (€ 2,923,829.97).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Face of the Believer von Wang Guangyi kam im Oktober 2021 bei Bonhams zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 31.875,00 (€ 3.545,65) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 25.000,00 – 45.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wang Guangyi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Mao AO im Oktober 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.036.000,00 (€ 2.923.829,97).
