This artwork by Peng Si achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2010. In the Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) auction, the work Portrait of a Man in Yellow sold for HKD 475,000.00 (€ 49,347.16) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 180,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Peng Si - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Off Shore Laments By Wintery River, which sold at auction in April 2014 for HKD 1,062,000.00 (€ 98,772.89).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Peng Si erzielte im Mai 2010 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) wurde die Arbeit Portrait of a Man in Yellow für HKD 475.000,00 (€ 49.347,16) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 180.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Peng Si mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Off Shore Laments By Wintery River beobachtet, die im April 2014 für HKD 1.062.000,00 (€ 98.772,89) versteigert wurde.
