Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2021 Bonhams in Hong Kong held the auction Southeast Asian Modern & Contemporary Art Online, which included the work Woman Bearing Fruit by Antonio Blanco. It changed hands for a price of HKD 177,500.00 (€ 19,744.42) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of HKD 120,000.00 – 180,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Antonio Blanco achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Balinese Woman With Child in October 2012 with an auction result of HKD 3,140,000.00 (€ 312,594.54).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2021 führte Bonhams in Hong Kong die Auktion Southeast Asian Modern & Contemporary Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Woman Bearing Fruit von Antonio Blanco zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von HKD 177.500,00 (€ 19.744,42) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 120.000,00 – 180.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Antonio Blanco erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Balinese Woman With Child im Oktober 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 3.140.000,00 (€ 312.594,54).
