A top price for Pang Maokun
When the work Treaty Of Nanking by Pang Maokun was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in June 2007, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 1,800,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at HKD 5,472,000.00 (€ 517,654.44). This high result makes Treaty Of Nanking the most expensive artwork by Pang Maokun that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Pang Maokun
Als die Arbeit Treaty Of Nanking von Pang Maokun im Juni 2007 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 1.800.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 5.472.000,00 (€ 517.654,44) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Treaty Of Nanking zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Pang Maokun, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
