Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In April 2018 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Fine Chinese Paintings, which included the work Scholars Seeking Inspiration by Qian Hui'an. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 50,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 52,500.00 (€ 5,539.59). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Qian Hui'an achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Figures in October 2011 with an auction result of HKD 860,000.00 (€ 79,420.66).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im April 2018 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Fine Chinese Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Scholars Seeking Inspiration von Qian Hui'an zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 50.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 52.500,00 (€ 5.539,59) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Qian Hui'an erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Figures im Oktober 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 860.000,00 (€ 79.420,66).
