Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Landscapes in Yuan Styles by Wang Hui was sold in the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2012. The price achieved of HKD 920,000.00 (€ 95,839.53) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 800,000.00 – 1,000,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wang Hui achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Endless Streams and Mountains in July 2020 with an auction result of HKD 28,925,000.00 (€ 3,169,122.64).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Landscapes in Yuan Styles von Wang Hui wurde im Mai 2012 in der Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 920.000,00 (€ 95.839,53) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 800.000,00 – 1.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wang Hui erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Endless Streams and Mountains im Juli 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 28.925.000,00 (€ 3.169.122,64).
