Auction result misses estimated price range
In July 2020 a collector was able to acquire the work Bamboos by Xia Chang for HKD 5,935,000.00 (€ 650,259.05). This price was achieved in the auction Fine Classical Chinese Paintings at Sothebys in Hong Kong and was even below the estimate range of HKD 10,000,000.00 – 15,000,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Xia Chang - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Xiaoxue In Small Standard Script Calligraphy, which sold at auction in November 2005 for HKD 15,240,000.00 (€ 1,667,480.92).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juli 2020 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Bamboos von Xia Chang für HKD 5.935.000,00 (€ 650.259,05) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Fine Classical Chinese Paintings bei Sothebys in Hong Kong erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 10.000.000,00 – 15.000.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Xia Chang mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Xiaoxue In Small Standard Script Calligraphy beobachtet, die im November 2005 für HKD 15.240.000,00 (€ 1.667.480,92) versteigert wurde.
