Upper estimate price exceeded by 100 %.
This artwork by Wu Rangzhi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2018. In the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction, the work Prunus and Bamboo sold for HKD 100,000.00 (€ 10,925.45) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wu Rangzhi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Calligraphy In Caoshu in April 2015 with an auction result of HKD 1,125,000.00 (€ 130,017.02).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 100 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Wu Rangzhi erzielte im Mai 2018 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy wurde die Arbeit Prunus and Bamboo für HKD 100.000,00 (€ 10.925,45) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 50.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wu Rangzhi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Calligraphy In Caoshu im April 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 1.125.000,00 (€ 130.017,02).
