Milan Church
signed and titled 'Yen Wenliang' in Chinese (lower left & on reverse)
oil on board

Painted circa 1960s
Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Yan Wenliang achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2006. In the 20th Century Chinese Art auction, the work Milan Church sold for HKD 168,000.00 (€ 16,874.62) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 70,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yan Wenliang achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Night Moon in May 2016 with an auction result of HKD 4,360,000.00 (€ 503,935.34).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Yan Wenliang erzielte im Mai 2006 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 20th Century Chinese Art wurde die Arbeit Milan Church für HKD 168.000,00 (€ 16.874,62) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 70.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yan Wenliang erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Night Moon im Mai 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 4.360.000,00 (€ 503.935,34).
