Upper estimate price exceeded by 77 %.

This artwork by Choo Keng Kwang achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in December 2020. In the Modern and Contemporary Art Morning Session auction, the work Chinatown - Smith Street sold for HKD 106,250.00 (€ 11,207.07) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 60,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Choo Keng Kwang; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Arowana sold at auction in April 2015 with the realized price of HKD 175,000.00 (€ 20,224.87).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 77 % übertroffen
