Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Plum Blossoms / Calligraphy in Clerical Script by Gao Yehou was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in December this year. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 50,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 52,920.00 (€ 6,123.45). Admittedly, works by Gao Yehou have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Plum Blossoms in April 2017 with an auction result of HKD 375,000.00 (€ 44,263.42).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Plum Blossoms / Calligraphy in Clerical Script von Gao Yehou kam im Dezember diesen Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 50.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 52.920,00 (€ 6.123,45) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Gao Yehou auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Plum Blossoms im April 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 375.000,00 (€ 44.263,42).
