Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Running Script Calligraphy by Gao Shiqi was sold in the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2012. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 100,000.00 – 200,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 112,500.00 (€ 11,719.51) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Gao Shiqi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Calligraphy in the Style of Mifu in May 2014 with an auction result of HKD 1,060,000.00 (€ 100,249.27).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Running Script Calligraphy von Gao Shiqi wurde im Mai 2012 in der Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 100.000,00 – 200.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 112.500,00 (€ 11.719,51) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Gao Shiqi auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Calligraphy in the Style of Mifu im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 1.060.000,00 (€ 100.249,27).
