Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Dipo Andy achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2008. In the Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings auction, the work Catherine Zeta-Jones sold for HKD 199,500.00 (€ 16,441.32) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 75,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Dipo Andy - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mendadak Nge-Pop (Suddenly Pop), which sold at auction in October 2008 for HKD 572,000.00 (€ 58,183.25).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Dipo Andy erzielte im April 2008 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings wurde die Arbeit Catherine Zeta-Jones für HKD 199.500,00 (€ 16.441,32) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 75.000,00.
