Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Grandet and His Treasure by Huang Yuxing was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in December 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 480,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at HKD 1,500,000.00 (€ 169,906.34). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Huang Yuxing achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Seven Treasure Pines in December 2021 with an auction result of HKD 64,830,000.00 (€ 7,343,352.18).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Grandet and His Treasure von Huang Yuxing im Dezember 2021 bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 480.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 1.500.000,00 (€ 169.906,34) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Huang Yuxing erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Seven Treasure Pines im Dezember 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 64.830.000,00 (€ 7.343.352,18).
