Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October 2021 China Guardian held the auction Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art, which included the work Self-Portrait (Painted In 1988) by Mao Xuhui. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 500,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 540,000.00 (€ 60,067.52). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mao Xuhui achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work '92 Paternalism in November 2010 with an auction result of HKD 11,860,000.00 (€ 1,171,807.30).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober 2021 führte China Guardian die Auktion Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Self-Portrait (Painted In 1988) von Mao Xuhui zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 500.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 540.000,00 (€ 60.067,52) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mao Xuhui erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit '92 Paternalism im November 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 11.860.000,00 (€ 1.171.807,30).
