Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Calligraphy in Stone-drum Script by Wu Dacheng was sold in the Summer Reverie: Chinese Paintings Online auction at Christies in New York in August this year. It changed hands for a price of HKD 277,200.00 (€ 32,607.25) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of HKD 200,000.00 – 300,000.00. 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).
