Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2001 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction FINE CLASSICAL CHINESE PAINTINGS AND CALLIGRAPHY, which included the work Landscapes And Figures by Yuan Shangtong. The price achieved of HKD 105,750.00 (€ 15,075.23) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 100,000.00 – 120,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yuan Shangtong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape, which sold at auction in March 2015 for USD 50,000.00 (€ 46,550.60).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2001 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion FINE CLASSICAL CHINESE PAINTINGS AND CALLIGRAPHY durch, in der auch die Arbeit Landscapes And Figures von Yuan Shangtong zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 105.750,00 (€ 15.075,23) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 100.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Yuan Shangtong mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Landscape beobachtet, die im März 2015 für USD 50.000,00 (€ 46.550,60) versteigert wurde.
