This artwork by Liu Yazi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2011. In the Fine Chinese Paintings auction, the work Poem In Xingshu sold for HKD 187,500.00 (€ 17,315.55) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 70,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Liu Yazi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Seven - Character Poem In Running Script, which sold at auction in April 2018 for HKD 413,000.00 (€ 43,578.10).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Liu Yazi erzielte im Oktober 2011 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Fine Chinese Paintings wurde die Arbeit Poem In Xingshu für HKD 187.500,00 (€ 17.315,55) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 70.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Liu Yazi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Seven - Character Poem In Running Script beobachtet, die im April 2018 für HKD 413.000,00 (€ 43.578,10) versteigert wurde.
