Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Calligraphy In Regular Script by Sun Wen was sold in the Fine Classical Chinese Paintings & Calligraphy auction at Sothebys in New York in March 2018. The price achieved of USD 22,500.00 (€ 18,262.99) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 18,000.00 – 28,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sun Wen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Calligraphy in April last year with an auction result of HKD 4,536,000.00 (€ 548,435.42).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Calligraphy In Regular Script von Sun Wen wurde im März 2018 in der Auktion Fine Classical Chinese Paintings & Calligraphy bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 22.500,00 (€ 18.262,99) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 18.000,00 – 28.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sun Wen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Calligraphy im April letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 4.536.000,00 (€ 548.435,42).
