Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Chen Chi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in April 2011. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Poseidon; and Dionysus sold for USD 2,375.00 (€ 1,602.46) - well above the upper estimate of USD 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chen Chi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Flying Geese in April 2021 with an auction result of HKD 302,400.00 (€ 32,376.66).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Chen Chi erzielte im April 2011 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Poseidon; and Dionysus für USD 2.375,00 (€ 1.602,46) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chen Chi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Flying Geese im April 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 302.400,00 (€ 32.376,66).
