A top price for Thomas Yeo - as previously expected
The work Airborne by Thomas Yeo was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2019. The price achieved of HKD 75,000.00 (€ 8,698.61) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 60,000.00 – 100,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Airborne is the most expensive artwork by Thomas Yeo that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Airborne von Thomas Yeo kam im November 2019 bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 75.000,00 (€ 8.698,61) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 60.000,00 – 100.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Airborne das teuerste Kunstwerk von Thomas Yeo, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
