Auction result well in line with expectations
The work My Identity As A Tourist Series (Set Of Ten) by Cang Xin was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2015. The price achieved of HKD 93,750.00 (€ 10,834.75) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 70,000.00 – 120,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Cang Xin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Harmony of Nature and Human Series, which sold at auction in October 2007 for GBP 20,400.00 (€ 29,295.74).
