Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Bustling Chinatown by Tan Choon Ghee was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2012. The price achieved of HKD 25,000.00 (€ 2,478.86) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 20,000.00 – 28,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Tan Choon Ghee achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Landscape in December 2020 with an auction result of HKD 275,000.00 (€ 29,006.54).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Bustling Chinatown von Tan Choon Ghee kam im November 2012 bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 25.000,00 (€ 2.478,86) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 20.000,00 – 28.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Tan Choon Ghee erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Landscape im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 275.000,00 (€ 29.006,54).
