Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
The work Calligraphy Couplet In Clerical Script by Huang Yi was worth USD 75,000.00 (€ 67,192.26) to a buyer in September 2015. This price was achieved in the auction Fine Classical Chinese Paintings & Calligraphy at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 16,000.00 many times over. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Huang Yi; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Heading North by Boat in Spring sold at auction in April last year with the realized price of HKD 756,000.00 (€ 91,405.90).
