Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Travel & Exploration, which included the work A folio of sixteen linocuts commemorating Indonesia's 1945 declaration of independence by Mochtar Apin. It changed hands for a price of GBP 765.00 (€ 890.09) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mochtar Apin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Memecah (Triptych) in October 2016 with an auction result of HKD 750,000.00 (€ 88,259.44).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Travel & Exploration durch, in der auch die Arbeit A folio of sixteen linocuts commemorating Indonesia's 1945 declaration of independence von Mochtar Apin zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 765,00 (€ 890,09) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mochtar Apin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Memecah (Triptych) im Oktober 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 750.000,00 (€ 88.259,44).
