Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Javaanse Boer Met Haan (Javanese Farmer With Cockerel) by Gerard Pieter Adolfs was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2014. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 45,000.00 – 65,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 50,000.00 (€ 5,147.65) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Gerard Pieter Adolfs have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Beeldhouwer Bali (Balinese sculptor) in October 2004 with an auction result of HKD 262,900.00 (€ 26,483.89).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Javaanse Boer Met Haan (Javanese Farmer With Cockerel) von Gerard Pieter Adolfs wurde im Oktober 2014 in der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 45.000,00 – 65.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 50.000,00 (€ 5.147,65) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Gerard Pieter Adolfs auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Beeldhouwer Bali (Balinese sculptor) im Oktober 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 262.900,00 (€ 26.483,89).
