Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In May 2005 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction FINE CLASSICAL CHINESE PAINTINGS AND CALLIGRAPHY, which included the work Looking For Plum Blossoms In The Snow by Gu Luo. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 35,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 36,000.00 (€ 3,748.97). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gu Luo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Character And Landscape in April 2013 with an auction result of HKD 483,000.00 (€ 47,280.30).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Mai 2005 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion FINE CLASSICAL CHINESE PAINTINGS AND CALLIGRAPHY durch, in der auch die Arbeit Looking For Plum Blossoms In The Snow von Gu Luo zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 35.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 36.000,00 (€ 3.748,97) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gu Luo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Character And Landscape im April 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 483.000,00 (€ 47.280,30).
