Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Plum Blossoms by Wu Guanzhong was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April last year. The price achieved of HKD 103,927,000.00 (€ 12,565,530.80) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 90,000,000.00 – 120,000,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wu Guanzhong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Zhou Village, which sold at auction in April 2016 for HKD 236,000,000.00 (€ 26,588,934.53).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Plum Blossoms von Wu Guanzhong kam im April letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 103.927.000,00 (€ 12.565.530,80) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 90.000.000,00 – 120.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Wu Guanzhong mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Zhou Village beobachtet, die im April 2016 für HKD 236.000.000,00 (€ 26.588.934,53) versteigert wurde.
