Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Wu Daolin could be acquired at Bonhams in Los Angeles in September this year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Fine Chinese Paintings auction, the work Guanyin, 1942 changed hands for USD 1,920.00 (€ 1,814.06) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wu Daolin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Playing Music in April 2016 with an auction result of HKD 1,000,000.00 (€ 112,664.98).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Wu Daolin konnte im September diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Los Angeles für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Fine Chinese Paintings wechselte die Arbeit Guanyin, 1942 für USD 1.920,00 (€ 1.814,06) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wu Daolin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Playing Music im April 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 1.000.000,00 (€ 112.664,98).
