Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Stamping the Water by Song Dong was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2009. The price achieved of HKD 680,000.00 (€ 62,098.26) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 550,000.00 – 750,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Song Dong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Stamping On Water (Set Of 36), which sold at auction in April 2014 for HKD 1,360,000.00 (€ 126,488.82).
