Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.
The work Woman in Grey Robe by Sanyu was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in December last year. It achieved a price of HKD 882,000.00 (€ 105,694.90), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 47%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sanyu achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Five Nudes in November 2019 with an auction result of HKD 303,985,000.00 (€ 35,256,632.18).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 47 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Woman in Grey Robe von Sanyu kam im Dezember letzten Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 882.000,00 (€ 105.694,90) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 47%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sanyu erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Five Nudes im November 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 303.985.000,00 (€ 35.256.632,18).
