Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Mythos of Lost Dynasties Series J No. 17 by Gu Wenda was auctioned at Christies in Shanghai in September 2017. The price achieved of CNY 72,000.00 (€ 9,160.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as CNY 60,000.00 – 90,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gu Wenda achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Exclamatory Word And Bound Human Innards Series: He! He! He! (Triptych) in April 2015 with an auction result of HKD 3,680,000.00 (€ 425,300.13).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Mythos of Lost Dynasties Series J No. 17 von Gu Wenda kam im September 2017 bei Christies in Shanghai zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von CNY 72.000,00 (€ 9.160,76) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit CNY 60.000,00 – 90.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gu Wenda erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Exclamatory Word And Bound Human Innards Series: He! He! He! (Triptych) im April 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 3.680.000,00 (€ 425.300,13).
