Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Calligraphy in Running Script by Wei Zhihuang was sold in the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings & Calligraphy auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2016. The price achieved of HKD 150,000.00 (€ 17,337.22) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 120,000.00 – 200,000.00. Admittedly, works by Wei Zhihuang have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Bamboo And Rock in November 2015 with an auction result of HKD 1,120,000.00 (€ 136,792.27).
