Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Leaning on Books by Ren Xun was sold in the Exquisite Eye: Chinese Paintings Online auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2019. The price achieved of HKD 22,500.00 (€ 2,575.12) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 18,000.00 – 28,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ren Xun achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Phoenix in October 2011 with an auction result of HKD 740,000.00 (€ 68,338.71).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Leaning on Books von Ren Xun wurde im Mai 2019 in der Auktion Exquisite Eye: Chinese Paintings Online bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 22.500,00 (€ 2.575,12) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 18.000,00 – 28.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ren Xun erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Phoenix im Oktober 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 740.000,00 (€ 68.338,71).
