Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Wang Jianwei achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2008. In the Contemporary Chinese Art III - The Estella Collection auction, the work Spider sold for HKD 271,500.00 (€ 22,375.03) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 120,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wang Jianwei achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Blind in May 2016 with an auction result of HKD 2,200,000.00 (€ 254,279.30).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Wang Jianwei erzielte im April 2008 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Contemporary Chinese Art III - The Estella Collection wurde die Arbeit Spider für HKD 271.500,00 (€ 22.375,03) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 120.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wang Jianwei erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Blind im Mai 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 2.200.000,00 (€ 254.279,30).
