Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Landscape by Hung Hoi was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in September last year. The price achieved of HKD 25,200.00 (€ 3,279.12) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Admittedly, works by Hung Hoi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Ancient Temple in the Mountains in May 2017 with an auction result of HKD 250,000.00 (€ 28,546.64).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Landscape von Hung Hoi kam im September letzten Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 25.200,00 (€ 3.279,12) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Hung Hoi auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Ancient Temple in the Mountains im Mai 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 250.000,00 (€ 28.546,64).
