Auction result well in line with expectations
In October this year China Guardian held the auction Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art, which included the work Rock Collection(Painted In 2007) by Shara Hughes. The price achieved of HKD 2,640,000.00 (€ 319,258.14) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 2,200,000.00 – 3,200,000.00. Admittedly, works by Shara Hughes have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Spins from Swiss in May last year with an auction result of USD 2,940,000.00 (€ 2,739,726.03).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober diesen Jahres führte China Guardian die Auktion Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Rock Collection(Painted In 2007) von Shara Hughes zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 2.640.000,00 (€ 319.258,14) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 2.200.000,00 – 3.200.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Shara Hughes auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Spins from Swiss im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.940.000,00 (€ 2.739.726,03).
