Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In April 2017 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Modern Asian Art, which included the work À Monsieur Le Redacture by Yun Gee. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 80,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 87,500.00 (€ 10,328.13). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yun Gee achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Old Broadway in Winter in May 2018 with an auction result of HKD 58,600,000.00 (€ 6,402,313.62).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im April 2017 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Modern Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit À Monsieur Le Redacture von Yun Gee zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 80.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 87.500,00 (€ 10.328,13) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yun Gee erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Old Broadway in Winter im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 58.600.000,00 (€ 6.402.313,62).
