Auction result misses estimated price range

In April last year a collector was able to acquire the work Happy Life Series by Chen Wenling for HKD 17,640.00 (€ 2,132.80). This price was achieved in the auction No Regrets: 20/21 Art Online: All Editions at Christies in Hong Kong and was even below the estimate range of HKD 20,000.00 – 40,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chen Wenling achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work China Scene No. 1 in March 2008 with an auction result of USD 97,000.00 (€ 61,372.98).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im April letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Happy Life Series von Chen Wenling für HKD 17.640,00 (€ 2.132,80) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion No Regrets: 20/21 Art Online: All Editions bei Christies in Hong Kong erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 20.000,00 – 40.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chen Wenling erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit China Scene No. 1 im März 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 97.000,00 (€ 61.372,98).
