Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Man Carrying a Monkey by Luo Qing was sold in the Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) auction at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2010. The result of HKD 50,000.00 (€ 4,940.17) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of HKD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Luo Qing - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Falling Leaf, which sold at auction in May 2008 for HKD 211,500.00 (€ 17,412.05).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Man Carrying a Monkey von Luo Qing wurde im November 2010 in der Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von HKD 50.000,00 (€ 4.940,17) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 50.000,00 – 70.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Luo Qing mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Falling Leaf beobachtet, die im Mai 2008 für HKD 211.500,00 (€ 17.412,05) versteigert wurde.
