Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Wu Guanzhong achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April last year. In the Modern Day Auction auction, the work Tiger sold for HKD 239,400.00 (€ 28,945.20) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 100,000.00. 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 April letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern Day Auction wurde die Arbeit Tiger für HKD 239.400,00 (€ 28.945,20) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 100.000,00. 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).
