Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Seclusion in Mountain Village by Qian Gu was sold in the Fine Classical Chinese Paintings auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2021. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 1,000,000.00 – 2,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 1,197,000.00 (€ 133,149.67) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Qian Gu - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape, which sold at auction in September 2020 for USD 500,000.00 (€ 426,693.98).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Seclusion in Mountain Village von Qian Gu wurde im Oktober 2021 in der Auktion Fine Classical Chinese Paintings bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 1.000.000,00 – 2.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 1.197.000,00 (€ 133.149,67) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Qian Gu mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Landscape beobachtet, die im September 2020 für USD 500.000,00 (€ 426.693,98) versteigert wurde.
