Upper estimate price exceeded by 56 %.
In April 2016 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Contemporary Asian Art, which included the work B39 by Gu Dexin. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 125,000.00 (€ 14,083.12), 56% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gu Dexin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work B03 in October 2011 with an auction result of HKD 1,940,000.00 (€ 179,158.24).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 56 % übertroffen
Im April 2016 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Contemporary Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit B39 von Gu Dexin zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 125.000,00 (€ 14.083,12) und damit 56% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gu Dexin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit B03 im Oktober 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 1.940.000,00 (€ 179.158,24).
