Auction result well in line with expectations
In November this year Christies in Hong Kong held the auction 20th Century Art Day Sale, which included the work Taichi Series by Ju Ming. The price achieved of HKD 2,142,000.00 (€ 251,353.14) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 1,400,000.00 – 2,400,000.00. Admittedly, works by Ju Ming have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Taichi Series - Single Whip in October 2011 with an auction result of HKD 20,820,000.00 (€ 1,922,718.86).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November diesen Jahres führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion 20th Century Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Taichi Series von Ju Ming zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 2.142.000,00 (€ 251.353,14) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 1.400.000,00 – 2.400.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Ju Ming auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Taichi Series - Single Whip im Oktober 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 20.820.000,00 (€ 1.922.718,86).
