Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Chua Mia Tee could be acquired at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2016 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Art auction, the work Wall Carving changed hands for HKD 31,250.00 (€ 3,520.78) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of HKD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Admittedly, works by Chua Mia Tee have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Temple Street (Singapore Chinatown) in May 2019 with an auction result of HKD 162,500.00 (€ 18,598.08).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Chua Mia Tee konnte im April 2016 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Art wechselte die Arbeit Wall Carving für HKD 31.250,00 (€ 3.520,78) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Chua Mia Tee auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Temple Street (Singapore Chinatown) im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 162.500,00 (€ 18.598,08).
