Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Zhuang Hui could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in September 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Art Asia auction, the work Class Picture Of The Graduates Of The First Normal Institute Of Luoyang changed hands for USD 4,688.00 (€ 3,329.31) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Admittedly, works by Zhuang Hui have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work 1. The Staff Of The Wanda Shopping Plaza, 1997 2. All Students And Teachers Of The Middle And Primary School, Bei Ye Village, Xinan County, Henan Province, 1996 3. The Entire Staff Of Shuangyuan Energy Source Company, Henan Province, 1997 in September 2007 with an auction result of USD 34,000.00 (€ 23,911.67).
