A top price for Chao Chung-Hsiang - as previously expected
The work Five Phases by Chao Chung-Hsiang was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2016. The price achieved of HKD 5,840,000.00 (€ 657,963.46) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 5,000,000.00 – 7,000,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Five Phases is the most expensive artwork by Chao Chung-Hsiang that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Five Phases von Chao Chung-Hsiang kam im April 2016 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 5.840.000,00 (€ 657.963,46) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 5.000.000,00 – 7.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Five Phases das teuerste Kunstwerk von Chao Chung-Hsiang, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
