Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Palace Servant by Ling Jian was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2013. The price achieved of HKD 500,000.00 (€ 47,405.56) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 400,000.00 – 600,000.00. Admittedly, works by Ling Jian have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Communist Sisters: Tears of Idealism No. 2 in June 2008 with an auction result of GBP 163,250.00 (€ 206,353.47).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Palace Servant von Ling Jian kam im November 2013 bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 500.000,00 (€ 47.405,56) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 400.000,00 – 600.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Ling Jian auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Communist Sisters: Tears of Idealism No. 2 im Juni 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 163.250,00 (€ 206.353,47).
