Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Calligraphy Couplet in Running Script by Chen Li was sold in the Fine Modern Chinese Paintings auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2007. It achieved a price of HKD 36,000.00 (€ 3,427.93), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chen Li achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Float to Sukhavati in April 2014 with an auction result of CNY 2,190,000.00 (€ 252,631.58).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Calligraphy Couplet in Running Script von Chen Li wurde im Mai 2007 in der Auktion Fine Modern Chinese Paintings bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 36.000,00 (€ 3.427,93) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 20%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chen Li erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Float to Sukhavati im April 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von CNY 2.190.000,00 (€ 252.631,58).
