Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Seven-Character Poem in Cursive Script by Yu Youren was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in December last year. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 70,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 75,600.00 (€ 9,059.56). 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 leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Seven-Character Poem in Cursive Script von Yu Youren kam im Dezember letzten Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 70.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 75.600,00 (€ 9.059,56) einen neuen Besitzer. 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).
