Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait Of A Javanese Man by Czeslaw Mystkowski was sold in the Modern & Contemporary Southeast Asian Art auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2015. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 35,000.00 (€ 4,044.97) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Czeslaw Mystkowski - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Reclining nude, which sold at auction in October 2007 for EUR 9,850.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait Of A Javanese Man von Czeslaw Mystkowski wurde im April 2015 in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary Southeast Asian Art bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 35.000,00 (€ 4.044,97) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Czeslaw Mystkowski mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Reclining nude beobachtet, die im Oktober 2007 für EUR 9.850,00 versteigert wurde.
