Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price

The work Calligraphy in seal script, Liyoubi Ding Inscription by Wu Dacheng was worth USD 40,312.50 (€ 36,340.48) to a buyer in March last year. This price was achieved in the auction The Reverend Richard Fabian Collection of Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy, Part IV at Bonhams in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 10,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wu Dacheng achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Calligraphy Couplet In Zhuanshu in April 2015 with an auction result of HKD 5,360,000.00 (€ 619,458.88).
