Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Ro pe by Mao Lizi was sold in the Asian And Western 20th Century & Contemporary Art (Evening Sale) auction at Christies in Shanghai in October 2015. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of CNY 180,000.00 – 380,000.00, the actual price achieved of CNY 225,000.00 (€ 32,256.38) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. 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).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Ro pe von Mao Lizi wurde im Oktober 2015 in der Auktion Asian And Western 20th Century & Contemporary Art (Evening Sale) bei Christies in Shanghai versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von CNY 180.000,00 – 380.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von CNY 225.000,00 (€ 32.256,38) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. 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).
