Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Yu Youren achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2008. In the Fine Chinese Modern Paintings auction, the work Poem in Cursive Script Calligraphy sold for HKD 125,000.00 (€ 10,290.81) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yu Youren achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Calligraphy in Cursive Script in November 2017 with an auction result of HKD 3,820,000.00 (€ 411,280.89).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Yu Youren erzielte im Mai 2008 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Fine Chinese Modern Paintings wurde die Arbeit Poem in Cursive Script Calligraphy für HKD 125.000,00 (€ 10.290,81) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 50.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yu Youren erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Calligraphy in Cursive Script im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 3.820.000,00 (€ 411.280,89).
