Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Langscape After Wang Meng by Wu Li was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2008. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 3,800,000.00 – 5,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 3,967,500.00 (€ 326,972.15) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wu Li - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Spring Mountains In Seclusion, which sold at auction in October 2016 for HKD 6,080,000.00 (€ 715,489.87).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Langscape After Wang Meng von Wu Li kam im April 2008 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 3.800.000,00 – 5.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 3.967.500,00 (€ 326.972,15) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Wu Li mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Spring Mountains In Seclusion beobachtet, die im Oktober 2016 für HKD 6.080.000,00 (€ 715.489,87) versteigert wurde.
