Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Woman by Do Quang Em was auctioned at Christies in Singapore in April 2001, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of SGD 12,000.00 – 15,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for SGD 10,575.00 (€ 6,543.53). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Do Quang Em - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait Of Quen, which sold at auction in October this year for HKD 204,800.00 (€ 24,766.69).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Woman von Do Quang Em im April 2001 bei Christies in Singapur versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von SGD 12.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für SGD 10.575,00 (€ 6.543,53) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Do Quang Em mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait Of Quen beobachtet, die im Oktober diesen Jahres für HKD 204.800,00 (€ 24.766,69) versteigert wurde.
