A top price for Lan Meng
When the work Landscape After Juran by Lan Meng was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2016, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 60,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 212,500.00 (€ 189,090.59). This high result makes Landscape After Juran the most expensive artwork by Lan Meng that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Lan Meng
Als die Arbeit Landscape After Juran von Lan Meng im September 2016 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 60.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 212.500,00 (€ 189.090,59) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Landscape After Juran zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Lan Meng, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
