Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Born With The Cultural Revolution by Xing Danwen was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2007, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 10,800.00 (€ 8,075.37). Other works by Xing Danwen have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in June 2007 by the work Urban Fiction 3 at GBP 10,200.00 (€ 15,136.29).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Born With The Cultural Revolution von Xing Danwen im März 2007 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 10.800,00 (€ 8.075,37) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Xing Danwen wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im Juni 2007 die Arbeit Urban Fiction 3 mit GBP 10.200,00 (€ 15.136,29).
