Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In April 2015 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Modern & Contemporary Southeast Asian Art, which included the work Monk by Hong Viet Dung. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 50,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 52,500.00 (€ 6,067.46). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hong Viet Dung - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Hong Viet Dung | Landscape with Figure, which sold at auction in July last year for HKD 138,600.00 (€ 17,294.43).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im April 2015 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Modern & Contemporary Southeast Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Monk von Hong Viet Dung zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 50.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 52.500,00 (€ 6.067,46) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Hong Viet Dung mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Hong Viet Dung | Landscape with Figure beobachtet, die im Juli letzten Jahres für HKD 138.600,00 (€ 17.294,43) versteigert wurde.
