Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Two Lacquer Panels by Le Quoc Loc was worth HKD 275,000.00 (€ 25,576.78) to a buyer in April 2014. This price was achieved in the auction Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings at Sothebys in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 75,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Le Quoc Loc achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Paysage du Tonkin (Tonkin Landscape) in May this year with an auction result of HKD 2,394,000.00 (€ 286,947.44).
