Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
When the work Calligraphy In Clerical Script by Huang Yi was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2016, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 7,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 40,000.00 (€ 35,118.53). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Huang Yi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Heading North by Boat in Spring, which sold at auction in April last year for HKD 756,000.00 (€ 91,405.90).
Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Calligraphy In Clerical Script von Huang Yi im März 2016 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 7.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 40.000,00 (€ 35.118,53) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Huang Yi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Heading North by Boat in Spring beobachtet, die im April letzten Jahres für HKD 756.000,00 (€ 91.405,90) versteigert wurde.
