Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Wu Guanzhong achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in May last year. In the Modern Art Online auction, the work Parrots sold for HKD 107,100.00 (€ 12,715.07) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 40,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wu Guanzhong achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Zhou Village in April 2016 with an auction result of HKD 236,000,000.00 (€ 26,588,934.53).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Wu Guanzhong erzielte im Mai letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern Art Online wurde die Arbeit Parrots für HKD 107.100,00 (€ 12.715,07) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 40.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wu Guanzhong erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Zhou Village im April 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 236.000.000,00 (€ 26.588.934,53).
