A top price for Wang Ran
When the work Autumn Landscape by Wang Ran was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2013, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 50,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than 12 times as high at HKD 625,000.00 (€ 61,980.29). This high result makes Autumn Landscape the most expensive artwork by Wang Ran that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Wang Ran
Als die Arbeit Autumn Landscape von Wang Ran im Mai 2013 bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 50.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 625.000,00 (€ 61.980,29) mehr als zwölfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Autumn Landscape zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Wang Ran, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
