Auction result well in line with expectations

In October 2007 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Contemporary Chinese Art (Part I), which included the work Shanghai Hengshan Road; Shanghai Street Scene; Zhejiang Village (Set Of Three) by Tu Ke. The price achieved of HKD 50,000.00 (€ 4,458.11) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Tu Ke achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Landscape by the River in May 2012 with an auction result of HKD 860,000.00 (€ 89,589.13).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Oktober 2007 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Contemporary Chinese Art (Part I) durch, in der auch die Arbeit Shanghai Hengshan Road; Shanghai Street Scene; Zhejiang Village (Set Of Three) von Tu Ke zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 50.000,00 (€ 4.458,11) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Tu Ke erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Landscape by the River im Mai 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 860.000,00 (€ 89.589,13).
