Auction result well in line with expectations
The work White and Purple Bauhinia by Wu Tai was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2021. The price achieved of HKD 69,300.00 (€ 7,708.67) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wu Tai - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Hong Kong At Sunset, which sold at auction in April 2016 for HKD 200,000.00 (€ 22,533.00).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit White and Purple Bauhinia von Wu Tai kam im Oktober 2021 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 69.300,00 (€ 7.708,67) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Wu Tai mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Hong Kong At Sunset beobachtet, die im April 2016 für HKD 200.000,00 (€ 22.533,00) versteigert wurde.
