Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Goldfish by Lee Man Fong was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in May last year. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 550,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 567,000.00 (€ 67,315.07). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lee Man Fong achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bali Life in October 2014 with an auction result of HKD 33,720,000.00 (€ 3,471,572.23).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Goldfish von Lee Man Fong kam im Mai letzten Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 550.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 567.000,00 (€ 67.315,07) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lee Man Fong erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bali Life im Oktober 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 33.720.000,00 (€ 3.471.572,23).
