Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Tantri fable: The Flying Turtle by I Dana was auctioned at Christies in Singapore in September 2001, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of SGD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for SGD 2,585.00 (€ 1,607.71). Other works by I Dana have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in September 2001 by the work Temple Festival at SGD 4,112.50 (€ 2,557.71).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Tantri fable: The Flying Turtle von I Dana im September 2001 bei Christies in Singapur versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von SGD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für SGD 2.585,00 (€ 1.607,71) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von I Dana wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im September 2001 die Arbeit Temple Festival mit SGD 4.112,50 (€ 2.557,71).
