Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
The work Mural With Graffiti "Je T'Aime" by Mao Lizi was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2011. It achieved a price of HKD 225,000.00 (€ 20,778.66), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 50%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mao Lizi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in May 2015 with an auction result of HKD 3,880,000.00 (€ 455,266.51).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Mural With Graffiti "Je T'Aime" von Mao Lizi kam im Oktober 2011 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 225.000,00 (€ 20.778,66) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 50%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mao Lizi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 3.880.000,00 (€ 455.266,51).
