Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Bali by Ong Kim Seng was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2016. The price achieved of HKD 275,000.00 (€ 30,982.87) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 220,000.00 – 350,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ong Kim Seng - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Nepal , which sold at auction in April 2017 for HKD 725,000.00 (€ 85,575.95).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Bali von Ong Kim Seng kam im April 2016 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 275.000,00 (€ 30.982,87) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 220.000,00 – 350.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Ong Kim Seng mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Nepal beobachtet, die im April 2017 für HKD 725.000,00 (€ 85.575,95) versteigert wurde.
