Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Chen Jiayan achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2013. In the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction, the work Rabbit And Lingzhi sold for HKD 162,500.00 (€ 15,406.81) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 80,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Chen Jiayan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Birds, Narcissus and Pine, which sold at auction in May 2013 for HKD 475,000.00 (€ 47,105.02).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Chen Jiayan erzielte im November 2013 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy wurde die Arbeit Rabbit And Lingzhi für HKD 162.500,00 (€ 15.406,81) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 80.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Chen Jiayan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Birds, Narcissus and Pine beobachtet, die im Mai 2013 für HKD 475.000,00 (€ 47.105,02) versteigert wurde.
