Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Spring Mountain Amongst Mist by Xu Fang was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2017. The price achieved of USD 32,500.00 (€ 27,512.06) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 25,000.00 – 45,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Xu Fang achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Springs And Rocks At Mount Tianping in September 2016 with an auction result of USD 514,000.00 (€ 457,376.76).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Spring Mountain Amongst Mist von Xu Fang kam im September 2017 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 32.500,00 (€ 27.512,06) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 25.000,00 – 45.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Xu Fang erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Springs And Rocks At Mount Tianping im September 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 514.000,00 (€ 457.376,76).
