Artwork auctioned at eight times the upper estimate price
When the work Scholar In Studio by Yong Rong was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 30,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than eight times as high at HKD 250,000.00 (€ 28,150.37). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yong Rong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Scholar’S Rock, which sold at auction in May 2021 for HKD 750,000.00 (€ 79,280.79).
Kunstwerk zum Achtfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Scholar In Studio von Yong Rong im Oktober 2018 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 30.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 250.000,00 (€ 28.150,37) mehr als achtmal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Yong Rong mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Scholar’S Rock beobachtet, die im Mai 2021 für HKD 750.000,00 (€ 79.280,79) versteigert wurde.
