Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Lights No. 98 by Li Shurui was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in May this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 100,000.00 – 200,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 100,800.00 (€ 12,082.00) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Li Shurui - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Polar Lights No. 10, which sold at auction in November 2015 for HKD 200,000.00 (€ 24,427.19).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Lights No. 98 von Li Shurui kam im Mai diesen Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 100.000,00 – 200.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 100.800,00 (€ 12.082,00) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Li Shurui mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Polar Lights No. 10 beobachtet, die im November 2015 für HKD 200.000,00 (€ 24.427,19) versteigert wurde.
