Upper estimate price exceeded by 52 %.
The work Ephemeral Beauty by Li Chen was auctioned at Phillips in Hong Kong in October this year. It achieved a price of HKD 762,000.00 (€ 92,149.51), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 52%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Li Chen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Dragon-Riding Buddha (Executed In 2001) in April 2021 with an auction result of HKD 17,975,000.00 (€ 1,924,505.40).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 52 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Ephemeral Beauty von Li Chen kam im Oktober diesen Jahres bei Phillips in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 762.000,00 (€ 92.149,51) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 52%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Li Chen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Dragon-Riding Buddha (Executed In 2001) im April 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 17.975.000,00 (€ 1.924.505,40).
