Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In September 2000 Christies in New York held the auction JAPANESE AND KOREAN ART, which included the work Ideograms by Lee Ungno. Here, the upper estimate of USD 18,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 18,800.00 (€ 21,274.19). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lee Ungno - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work without title, which sold at auction in May 2016 for HKD 375,000.00 (€ 43,343.06).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Im September 2000 führte Christies in New York die Auktion JAPANESE AND KOREAN ART durch, in der auch die Arbeit Ideograms von Lee Ungno zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 18.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 18.800,00 (€ 21.274,19) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Lee Ungno mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit ohne Titel beobachtet, die im Mai 2016 für HKD 375.000,00 (€ 43.343,06) versteigert wurde.
