Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2013 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Contemporary Asian Art, which included the work April Fool'S Day No.1, No. 6 And No. 7 (Three Works) by Song Kun. The price achieved of HKD 237,500.00 (€ 23,248.60) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 200,000.00 – 300,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Song Kun achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Garden of Auspicious Animals in December 2021 with an auction result of HKD 2,375,000.00 (€ 269,018.38).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2013 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Contemporary Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit April Fool'S Day No.1, No. 6 And No. 7 (Three Works) von Song Kun zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 237.500,00 (€ 23.248,60) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Song Kun erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Garden of Auspicious Animals im Dezember 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 2.375.000,00 (€ 269.018,38).
