Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2018 a collector was able to acquire this work without title by Chittrovanu Mazumdar for HKD 13,750.00 (€ 1,551.93). This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Art Asia: Hong Kong Edition at Christies in Hong Kong and was even below the estimate range of HKD 180,000.00 – 320,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chittrovanu Mazumdar achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in May 2008 with an auction result of HKD 847,500.00 (€ 69,771.69).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November 2018 konnte ein Sammler diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Chittrovanu Mazumdar für HKD 13.750,00 (€ 1.551,93) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Contemporary Art Asia: Hong Kong Edition bei Christies in Hong Kong erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 180.000,00 – 320.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chittrovanu Mazumdar erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 847.500,00 (€ 69.771,69).
