Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In April 2016 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Modern and Contemporary Asian Art Evening Sale, which included the work Flight (Whirr Series) by Vicente Silva Manansala. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 2,800,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 3,200,000.00 (€ 360,527.93). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Vicente Silva Manansala - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Tiangge (Market Scene), which sold at auction in November this year for HKD 8,190,000.00 (€ 961,056.11).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im April 2016 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Modern and Contemporary Asian Art Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Flight (Whirr Series) von Vicente Silva Manansala zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 2.800.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 3.200.000,00 (€ 360.527,93) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Vicente Silva Manansala mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Tiangge (Market Scene) beobachtet, die im November diesen Jahres für HKD 8.190.000,00 (€ 961.056,11) versteigert wurde.
