Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Bodhisattva Guanyin by Wan Shouqi was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2006. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 200,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 228,000.00 (€ 22,110.55). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wan Shouqi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A View from Mount Jin, which sold at auction in May 2014 for HKD 562,500.00 (€ 53,198.31).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Bodhisattva Guanyin von Wan Shouqi kam im November 2006 bei Christies in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 200.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 228.000,00 (€ 22.110,55) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Wan Shouqi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A View from Mount Jin beobachtet, die im Mai 2014 für HKD 562.500,00 (€ 53.198,31) versteigert wurde.
