Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2009 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Contemporary Asian Art, which included the work Chinese Landscape - Zhuozheng Garden In Suzhou by Hong Lei. The price achieved of HKD 52,500.00 (€ 4,589.97) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Admittedly, works by Hong Lei have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Speak, Memory in May 2008 with an auction result of GBP 18,500.00 (€ 23,532.81).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2009 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Contemporary Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Chinese Landscape - Zhuozheng Garden In Suzhou von Hong Lei zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 52.500,00 (€ 4.589,97) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Hong Lei auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Speak, Memory im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 18.500,00 (€ 23.532,81).
