Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Liu Danzhai achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in March last year. In the Dawn of Spring: Chinese Paintings Online auction, the work Lady Writing a Letter sold for HKD 189,000.00 (€ 21,757.23) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 80,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Liu Danzhai achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Zhong Kui And Sister in April this year with an auction result of HKD 504,000.00 (€ 514,682.61).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Liu Danzhai erzielte im März letzten Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Dawn of Spring: Chinese Paintings Online wurde die Arbeit Lady Writing a Letter für HKD 189.000,00 (€ 21.757,23) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 80.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Liu Danzhai erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Zhong Kui And Sister im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 504.000,00 (€ 514.682,61).
