A top price for Li Shu - as previously expected
The work Landscape After Huang Gongwang by Li Shu was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2015. The price achieved of USD 7,500.00 (€ 6,982.59) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 6,000.00 – 9,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Landscape After Huang Gongwang is the most expensive artwork by Li Shu that we have observed at auctions so far.

Die Arbeit Landscape After Huang Gongwang von Li Shu kam im März 2015 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 7.500,00 (€ 6.982,59) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 6.000,00 – 9.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Landscape After Huang Gongwang das teuerste Kunstwerk von Li Shu, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
