A top price for Wang Ti
When the work Calligraphy In Seal Script by Wang Ti was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2014, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 8,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 27,500.00 (€ 19,960.80). This high result makes Calligraphy In Seal Script the most expensive artwork by Wang Ti that we have observed at auctions so far.
