Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Calligraphy by Wang Zhaoming was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2014, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 150,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at HKD 475,000.00 (€ 44,923.02). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Wang Zhaoming; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Poems In Xingshu sold at auction in April 2021 with the realized price of HKD 504,000.00 (€ 53,961.10).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Calligraphy von Wang Zhaoming im Mai 2014 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 150.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 475.000,00 (€ 44.923,02) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Wang Zhaoming; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Poems In Xingshu im April 2021 mit dem Hammerpreis von HKD 504.000,00 (€ 53.961,10).
