Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Zao Wou-Ki achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in November last year. In the A Graphic Century including French Impressions: Prints from Ambroise Vollard and Henri M. Petiet auction, the work without title sold for USD 4,032.00 (€ 3,905.84) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Zao Wou-Ki achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 29.09.64. in May last year with an auction result of HKD 278,000,000.00 (€ 33,004,566.21).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Zao Wou-Ki erzielte im November letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion A Graphic Century including French Impressions: Prints from Ambroise Vollard and Henri M. Petiet wurde diese Arbeit ohne Titel für USD 4.032,00 (€ 3.905,84) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Zao Wou-Ki erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 29.09.64. im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 278.000.000,00 (€ 33.004.566,21).
