Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2018 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Asian 20th Century & Contemporary Art (Evening Sale) / Contemporaries: Voices from East and West (Evening Sale), which included the work Vietnamese Ladies by Nguyễn Gia Trí. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 800,000.00 – 1,200,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 875,000.00 (€ 95,597.69) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Nguyễn Gia Trí have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Provincial Village in October 2017 with an auction result of HKD 5,140,000.00 (€ 565,717.72).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2018 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Asian 20th Century & Contemporary Art (Evening Sale) / Contemporaries: Voices from East and West (Evening Sale) durch, in der auch die Arbeit Vietnamese Ladies von Nguyễn Gia Trí zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 800.000,00 – 1.200.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 875.000,00 (€ 95.597,69) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Nguyễn Gia Trí auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Provincial Village im Oktober 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 5.140.000,00 (€ 565.717,72).
