Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2014 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction 20th Century Chinese Art, which included the work Putuo In The Afternoon by Tang Yunyu. The price achieved of HKD 175,000.00 (€ 16,276.14) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 150,000.00 – 200,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Tang Yunyu - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Reclining Nude on a Green Couch, which sold at auction in November 2012 for HKD 402,500.00 (€ 39,909.68).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2014 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion 20th Century Chinese Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Putuo In The Afternoon von Tang Yunyu zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 175.000,00 (€ 16.276,14) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 150.000,00 – 200.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Tang Yunyu mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Reclining Nude on a Green Couch beobachtet, die im November 2012 für HKD 402.500,00 (€ 39.909,68) versteigert wurde.
