Upper estimate price exceeded by 58 %.
In November 2018 Sothebys in London held the auction Contemporary Curated, which included the work Happy Family by Yin Kun. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 4,750.00 (€ 5,357.86), 58% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yin Kun achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hero Series No. 1 in October 2007 with an auction result of HKD 631,500.00 (€ 56,305.99).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 58 % übertroffen
Im November 2018 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Contemporary Curated durch, in der auch die Arbeit Happy Family von Yin Kun zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 4.750,00 (€ 5.357,86) und damit 58% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yin Kun erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hero Series No. 1 im Oktober 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 631.500,00 (€ 56.305,99).
