Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Rong Rong could be acquired at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2015 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Asian Art auction, the work 1999 No. 8 (1) & (2) Beijing (Two Works) changed hands for HKD 18,750.00 (€ 2,166.95) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of HKD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Rong Rong achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Rong Rong'S East Village, 1993-1998 (Set Of Forty Prints) in October 2010 with an auction result of HKD 475,000.00 (€ 44,101.77).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Rong Rong konnte im April 2015 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Asian Art wechselte die Arbeit 1999 No. 8 (1) & (2) Beijing (Two Works) für HKD 18.750,00 (€ 2.166,95) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Rong Rong erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Rong Rong'S East Village, 1993-1998 (Set Of Forty Prints) im Oktober 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 475.000,00 (€ 44.101,77).
