Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In May this year Christies in Cologne held the auction Fine Chinese Modern and Contemporary Ink Paintings, which included the work Tiger by Gao Qifeng. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 2,500,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 2,520,000.00 (€ 302,049.93). Admittedly, works by Gao Qifeng have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Roaring Lion in April 2014 with an auction result of HKD 15,640,000.00 (€ 1,454,621.49).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Im Mai diesen Jahres führte Christies in Köln die Auktion Fine Chinese Modern and Contemporary Ink Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Tiger von Gao Qifeng zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 2.500.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 2.520.000,00 (€ 302.049,93) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Gao Qifeng auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Roaring Lion im April 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 15.640.000,00 (€ 1.454.621,49).
