Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Gadis Meniup Suling (A Girl Playing The Flute) by Jeihan was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in December 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 15,000 - 25,000, the actual price achieved of HKD 16,250 (€ 1,858) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jeihan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work , which sold at auction in October 2015 for HKD 47,500 (€ 5,549).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Gadis Meniup Suling (A Girl Playing The Flute) von Jeihan kam im Dezember 2019 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 15.000 – 25.000 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 16.250 (€ 1.858) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Jeihan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit beobachtet, die im Oktober 2015 für HKD 47.500 (€ 5.549) versteigert wurde.
