Upper estimate price exceeded by 30 %.

In October 2013 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Contemporary Asian Art, which included the work Mao by Shi Xinning. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 325,000.00 (€ 30,840.81), 30% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Shi Xinning have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Mao And Mccarthy in March 2007 with an auction result of USD 372,000.00 (€ 278,151.64).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 30 % übertroffen

Im Oktober 2013 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Contemporary Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Mao von Shi Xinning zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 325.000,00 (€ 30.840,81) und damit 30% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Shi Xinning auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Mao And Mccarthy im März 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 372.000,00 (€ 278.151,64).
