Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Peeping Tom by Tony Wong was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in November 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of HKD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for HKD 17,640.00 (€ 1,961.39). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Tony Wong achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Chameleon in November 2007 with an auction result of HKD 463,500.00 (€ 40,518.38).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Peeping Tom von Tony Wong im November 2021 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für HKD 17.640,00 (€ 1.961,39) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Tony Wong erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Chameleon im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 463.500,00 (€ 40.518,38).
