Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Li Yongbin could be acquired at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2015 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Asian Art auction, the work Face Series (No. 1,2,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12, 14), The Sun (13 Works) changed hands for HKD 87,500.00 (€ 10,112.44) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of HKD 150,000.00 – 250,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Li Yongbin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Face, which sold at auction in May 2007 for EUR 38,400.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Li Yongbin konnte im April 2015 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Asian Art wechselte die Arbeit Face Series (No. 1,2,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12, 14), The Sun (13 Works) für HKD 87.500,00 (€ 10.112,44) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 150.000,00 – 250.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Li Yongbin mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Face beobachtet, die im Mai 2007 für EUR 38.400,00 versteigert wurde.
