Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Playing on the Beach by U Lun Gywe was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in May this year. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 80,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 83,200.00 (€ 9,972.44). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by U Lun Gywe - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Spectrum of Burmese Colour, which sold at auction in November 2019 for HKD 325,000.00 (€ 37,693.98).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
