Sold at the upper estimate price
In May 2016 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Fine Chinese Modern Paintings, which included the work Spring by Huang Yao. The auction ended at the price of HKD 250,000.00 (€ 28,895.37), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of HKD 180,000.00 – 250,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Huang Yao - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Riding the Dragon, which sold at auction in November 2012 for HKD 740,000.00 (€ 73,374.33).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Im Mai 2016 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Fine Chinese Modern Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Spring von Huang Yao zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von HKD 250.000,00 (€ 28.895,37) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 180.000,00 – 250.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Huang Yao mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Riding the Dragon beobachtet, die im November 2012 für HKD 740.000,00 (€ 73.374,33) versteigert wurde.
