Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Crying by Yin Jun was sold in the Contemporary Art Asia auction at Sothebys in New York in March 2008. It achieved a price of USD 23,750.00 (€ 15,026.89), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 19%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yin Jun - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Crying No. 3, which sold at auction in September 2008 for USD 50,000.00 (€ 35,508.84).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 23.750,00 (€ 15.026,89) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 19%. Für andere Arbeiten von Yin Jun mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Crying No. 3 beobachtet, die im September 2008 für USD 50.000,00 (€ 35.508,84) versteigert wurde.
