Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Rao Zongyi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in December this year. In the Cultured Legacy: Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy from the Chang Shiu Sig and Tung Shui Wah Collection auction, the work Mount Huang in Mogu Style sold for HKD 352,800.00 (€ 40,823.00) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 150,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Rao Zongyi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Auspicious Flowers and Fruits in October 2021 with an auction result of HKD 8,040,000.00 (€ 894,338.64).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Rao Zongyi erzielte im Dezember diesen Jahres bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Cultured Legacy: Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy from the Chang Shiu Sig and Tung Shui Wah Collection wurde die Arbeit Mount Huang in Mogu Style für HKD 352.800,00 (€ 40.823,00) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 150.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Rao Zongyi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Auspicious Flowers and Fruits im Oktober 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 8.040.000,00 (€ 894.338,64).
