Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Wisteria by Wu Guanzhong was sold in the Fine Chinese Paintings auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April last year. It achieved a price of HKD 14,290,000.00 (€ 1,727,765.02), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 19%. 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 leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Wisteria von Wu Guanzhong wurde im April letzten Jahres in der Auktion Fine Chinese Paintings bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 14.290.000,00 (€ 1.727.765,02) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 19%. 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).
