A top price for Long Chin-San
When the work Mountain Huang by Long Chin-San was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2017, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 220,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at HKD 812,500.00 (€ 95,904.08). This high result makes Mountain Huang the most expensive artwork by Long Chin-San that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Long Chin-San
Als die Arbeit Mountain Huang von Long Chin-San im April 2017 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 220.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 812.500,00 (€ 95.904,08) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Mountain Huang zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Long Chin-San, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
