Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
When the work Eternal Beauty by Linxi was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in December 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 20,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at HKD 81,900.00 (€ 9,276.89). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Linxi; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Lin Xi | Light over shadow sold at auction in July last year with the realized price of HKD 100,800.00 (€ 12,577.77).
Kunstwerk zum Vierfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Eternal Beauty von Linxi im Dezember 2021 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 20.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 81.900,00 (€ 9.276,89) mehr als viermal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Linxi; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Lin Xi | Light over shadow im Juli letzten Jahres mit dem Hammerpreis von HKD 100.800,00 (€ 12.577,77).
