Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Landscape After Cao Zhibai by Xu Bangda was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2015, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 150,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at HKD 525,000.00 (€ 60,674.61). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Xu Bangda; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Landscape Inpired by Tang Sentiments sold at auction in November 2018 with the realized price of HKD 750,000.00 (€ 84,650.71).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Landscape After Cao Zhibai von Xu Bangda im April 2015 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 150.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 525.000,00 (€ 60.674,61) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Xu Bangda; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Landscape Inpired by Tang Sentiments im November 2018 mit dem Hammerpreis von HKD 750.000,00 (€ 84.650,71).
