Auction result well in line with expectations
The work La Montagne by Nam Hong was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2016. The price achieved of USD 12,500.00 (€ 11,122.98) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Admittedly, works by Nam Hong have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work La Vie En Rose, La Vie En Recyclage in March 2009 with an auction result of USD 62,500.00 (€ 47,130.68).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit La Montagne von Nam Hong kam im September 2016 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 12.500,00 (€ 11.122,98) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Nam Hong auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit La Vie En Rose, La Vie En Recyclage im März 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 62.500,00 (€ 47.130,68).
