Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Civilization Landscape 007 by Qin Feng was auctioned at Christies in New York in March 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 2,500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 8,750.00 (€ 7,451.25). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Qin Feng achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Four Seasons in November 2015 with an auction result of HKD 2,800,000.00 (€ 341,980.69).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Civilization Landscape 007 von Qin Feng im März 2021 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 2.500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 8.750,00 (€ 7.451,25) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Qin Feng erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Four Seasons im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 2.800.000,00 (€ 341.980,69).
