Upper estimate price exceeded by 64 %.
In December this year Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Cultured Legacy: Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy from the Chang Shiu Sig and Tung Shui Wah Collection, which included the work Calligraphy in Seal Script by Feng Kanghou. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 32,760.00 (€ 3,790.71), 64% 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 64 % übertroffen
Im Dezember diesen Jahres führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Cultured Legacy: Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy from the Chang Shiu Sig and Tung Shui Wah Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Calligraphy in Seal Script von Feng Kanghou zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 32.760,00 (€ 3.790,71) und damit 64% 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).
