Auction result well in line with expectations
The work El Over Bowery by Dong Kingman was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2019. The price achieved of HKD 62,500.00 (€ 7,143.66) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 40,000.00 – 80,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Dong Kingman - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Typhoon Shelter, Hong Kong, which sold at auction in October 2018 for HKD 162,500.00 (€ 18,297.74).
