Upper estimate price exceeded by 39 %.

In April last year Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Fine Chinese Paintings, which included the work Calligraphy Couplet in Lishu by Feng Kanghou. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 69,300.00 (€ 8,378.87), 39% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Feng Kanghou achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Three White Furong Seals in November 2016 with an auction result of HKD 885,000.00 (€ 107,843.17).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 39 % übertroffen

Im April letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Fine Chinese Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Calligraphy Couplet in Lishu von Feng Kanghou zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 69.300,00 (€ 8.378,87) und damit 39% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Feng Kanghou erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Three White Furong Seals im November 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 885.000,00 (€ 107.843,17).
