Auction result misses estimated price range
In December 2008 a collector was able to acquire the work Legendary Figures by Jiang Lian for HKD 100,000.00 (€ 9,267.91). This price was achieved in the auction Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy at Christies in Hong Kong and was even below the estimate range of HKD 120,000.00 – 150,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jiang Lian - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Beauties In Tang Poetry, which sold at auction in November 2013 for HKD 275,000.00 (€ 26,073.06).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Dezember 2008 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Legendary Figures von Jiang Lian für HKD 100.000,00 (€ 9.267,91) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy bei Christies in Hong Kong erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 120.000,00 – 150.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Jiang Lian mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Beauties In Tang Poetry beobachtet, die im November 2013 für HKD 275.000,00 (€ 26.073,06) versteigert wurde.
