Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2015 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Asia+ / First Open, which included the work New Ancient - Stele of Zhang Qian by Wang Jin. The price achieved of HKD 37,500.00 (€ 4,503.77) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wang Jin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Dream Of China in April 2007 with an auction result of HKD 1,920,000.00 (€ 179,771.60).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2015 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Asia+ / First Open durch, in der auch die Arbeit New Ancient - Stele of Zhang Qian von Wang Jin zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 37.500,00 (€ 4.503,77) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wang Jin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Dream Of China im April 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 1.920.000,00 (€ 179.771,60).
