This artwork by Auke Sonnega achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in March 2012. In the Nineteen to Now auction, the work Portrait of Made Sudjana sold for EUR 29,800.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Auke Sonnega - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ceremony at the Temple, which sold at auction in May 2016 for HKD 562,500.00 (€ 65,014.59).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 99 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Auke Sonnega erzielte im März 2012 bei Christies in Amsterdam einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Nineteen to Now wurde die Arbeit Portrait of Made Sudjana für EUR 29.800,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 15.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Auke Sonnega mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Ceremony at the Temple beobachtet, die im Mai 2016 für HKD 562.500,00 (€ 65.014,59) versteigert wurde.
