This artwork by Emperor Yongzheng achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2017. In the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction, the work Calligraphic Couplet in Running Script sold for HKD 687,500.00 (€ 78,503.25) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 300,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Emperor Yongzheng; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Calligraphy In Xingshu sold at auction in April 2013 with the realized price of HKD 937,500.00 (€ 91,770.77).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
