A top price for Qiu Ying - as previously expected
In June this year Christies in Paris held the auction Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy, which included the work Celestial Mountains and Pavilions by Qiu Ying. The price achieved of HKD 31,230,000.00 (€ 3,649,219.78) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 28,000,000.00 – 40,000,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Celestial Mountains and Pavilions is the most expensive artwork by Qiu Ying that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juni diesen Jahres führte Christies in Paris die Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy durch, in der auch die Arbeit Celestial Mountains and Pavilions von Qiu Ying zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 31.230.000,00 (€ 3.649.219,78) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 28.000.000,00 – 40.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Celestial Mountains and Pavilions das teuerste Kunstwerk von Qiu Ying, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
