A top price for Chen Da
When the work Landscape After Qiu Ying by Chen Da was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2013, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 8,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 40,000.00 (€ 29,553.01). This high result makes Landscape After Qiu Ying the most expensive artwork by Chen Da that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Chen Da
Als die Arbeit Landscape After Qiu Ying von Chen Da im September 2013 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 8.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 40.000,00 (€ 29.553,01) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Landscape After Qiu Ying zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Chen Da, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
