A top price for Deng Sanmu
When the work Calligraphy Couplet In Lishu by Deng Sanmu was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2014, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 90,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at HKD 525,000.00 (€ 54,050.28). This high result makes Calligraphy Couplet In Lishu the most expensive artwork by Deng Sanmu that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Deng Sanmu
Als die Arbeit Calligraphy Couplet In Lishu von Deng Sanmu im Oktober 2014 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 90.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 525.000,00 (€ 54.050,28) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Calligraphy Couplet In Lishu zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Deng Sanmu, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
