Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Snow in Central Park, New York by Chen Chi was worth USD 4,750.00 (€ 3,204.91) to a buyer in April 2011. This price was achieved in the auction Christie's Interiors at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 1,200.00 many times over. 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).

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).
