Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Wine Party at the Summer Garden by Qiu Ying was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in December 2008. The price achieved of HKD 3,860,000.00 (€ 357,741.22) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 3,500,000.00 – 4,500,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Qiu Ying achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Celestial Mountains and Pavilions in June this year with an auction result of HKD 31,230,000.00 (€ 3,649,219.78).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Wine Party at the Summer Garden von Qiu Ying kam im Dezember 2008 bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 3.860.000,00 (€ 357.741,22) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 3.500.000,00 – 4.500.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Qiu Ying erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Celestial Mountains and Pavilions im Juni diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 31.230.000,00 (€ 3.649.219,78).
