Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2007 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Art Asia, which included the work Opera by Miao Xiaochun. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 15,600.00 (€ 11,664.42) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Miao Xiaochun - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Carrying The Cross (Set Of Eighteen), which sold at auction in April 2016 for HKD 375,000.00 (€ 42,249.37).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2007 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Art Asia durch, in der auch die Arbeit Opera von Miao Xiaochun zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 15.600,00 (€ 11.664,42) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Miao Xiaochun mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Carrying The Cross (Set Of Eighteen) beobachtet, die im April 2016 für HKD 375.000,00 (€ 42.249,37) versteigert wurde.
