Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In April 2008 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction An Important Collection of Vietnamese Paintings Featuring The Philip Ng Collection, which included the work Late Afternoon Chimes by Luong Xuan Nhi. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 487,500.00 (€ 40,176.16), 22% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Luong Xuan Nhi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Le Repos (Resting) in July 2020 with an auction result of HKD 5,165,000.00 (€ 565,895.19).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im April 2008 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion An Important Collection of Vietnamese Paintings Featuring The Philip Ng Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Late Afternoon Chimes von Luong Xuan Nhi zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 487.500,00 (€ 40.176,16) und damit 22% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Luong Xuan Nhi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Le Repos (Resting) im Juli 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 5.165.000,00 (€ 565.895,19).
