Auction result well in line with expectations
The work House In A House-Red Bed (Diptych) by Wang Huaiqing was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2017. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 20,000,000.00 – 30,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 21,700,000.00 (€ 2,561,376.78) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wang Huaiqing - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Traces Of Nature – 4 (Triptych) (Painted In 2004), which sold at auction in April this year for HKD 8,925,000.00 (€ 9,114,171.20).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit House In A House-Red Bed (Diptych) von Wang Huaiqing kam im April 2017 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 20.000.000,00 – 30.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 21.700.000,00 (€ 2.561.376,78) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Wang Huaiqing mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Traces Of Nature – 4 (Triptych) (Painted In 2004) beobachtet, die im April diesen Jahres für HKD 8.925.000,00 (€ 9.114.171,20) versteigert wurde.
