This artwork by Bao Shichen achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in March 2015. In the Fine Chinese Paintings auction, the work FIVE-CHARACTER COUPLET IN RUNNING SCRIPT sold for USD 13,750.00 (€ 12,801.42) - well above the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bao Shichen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Calligraphy Manuscripts in September 2011 with an auction result of USD 206,500.00 (€ 153,543.01).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 96 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Bao Shichen erzielte im März 2015 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Fine Chinese Paintings wurde die Arbeit FIVE-CHARACTER COUPLET IN RUNNING SCRIPT für USD 13.750,00 (€ 12.801,42) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bao Shichen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Calligraphy Manuscripts im September 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 206.500,00 (€ 153.543,01).
