Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.

The work Magnolias by Chen Shizeng was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2021. It achieved a price of HKD 75,000.00 (€ 8,339.24), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chen Shizeng achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Flowers in September 2015 with an auction result of USD 137,500.00 (€ 123,185.81).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Magnolias von Chen Shizeng kam im November 2021 bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 75.000,00 (€ 8.339,24) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%.

Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Flowers im September 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 137.500,00 (€ 123.185,81).
