Sold at the upper estimate price
In April 2014 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Fine Chinese Paintings, which included the work Calligraphy by Emperor Daoguang. The auction ended at the price of HKD 400,000.00 (€ 37,202.60), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of HKD 300,000.00 – 400,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Emperor Daoguang - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Seven-character Poem in Running Script Calligraphy, which sold at auction in November 2011 for HKD 980,000.00 (€ 93,753.07).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Im April 2014 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Fine Chinese Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Calligraphy von Emperor Daoguang zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von HKD 400.000,00 (€ 37.202,60) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 300.000,00 – 400.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Emperor Daoguang mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Seven-character Poem in Running Script Calligraphy beobachtet, die im November 2011 für HKD 980.000,00 (€ 93.753,07) versteigert wurde.
