Artwork auctioned at 18 times the upper estimate price
When the work Landscapes After Old Masters by Huang Ding was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2013, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 100,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than 18 times as high at HKD 1,840,000.00 (€ 174,452.45). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Huang Ding; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Landscape sold at auction in October 2013 with the realized price of HKD 3,335,000.00 (€ 316,474.18).
Kunstwerk zum 18-fachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Landscapes After Old Masters von Huang Ding im November 2013 bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 100.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 1.840.000,00 (€ 174.452,45) mehr als 18-mal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Huang Ding; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Landscape im Oktober 2013 mit dem Hammerpreis von HKD 3.335.000,00 (€ 316.474,18).
