Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Standing Dragon And Flying Phoenix (A Pair) by Hou Junming was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2008. The price achieved of USD 91,000.00 (€ 57,576.72) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hou Junming - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work New Paradise (Set Of Seven), which sold at auction in October 2007 for HKD 1,807,500.00 (€ 161,160.84).

Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 91.000,00 (€ 57.576,72) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Hou Junming mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit New Paradise (Set Of Seven) beobachtet, die im Oktober 2007 für HKD 1.807.500,00 (€ 161.160,84) versteigert wurde.
