The work Twenty-Five Characters by Luis Chan was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in December last year. It achieved a price of HKD 138,600.00 (€ 16,609.20), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 73%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Luis Chan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Marine Wonderland(Painted in 1978), which sold at auction in October last year for HKD 504,000.00 (€ 64,585.46).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 73 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Twenty-Five Characters von Luis Chan kam im Dezember letzten Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 138.600,00 (€ 16.609,20) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 73%. Für andere Arbeiten von Luis Chan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Marine Wonderland(Painted in 1978) beobachtet, die im Oktober letzten Jahres für HKD 504.000,00 (€ 64.585,46) versteigert wurde.
