Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Zhang Lei'S Poem In Cursive Script by Shen Congwen was sold in the Fine Classical Chinese Paintings & Calligraphy auction at Sothebys in New York in March 2018.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Zhang Lei'S Poem In Cursive Script von Shen Congwen wurde im März 2018 in der Auktion Fine Classical Chinese Paintings & Calligraphy bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 9.375,00 (€ 7.609,58) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Shen Congwen auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Calligraphy im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 66.000,00 (€ 67.398,91).
