Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Yang Jin achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2013. In the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction, the work Orchids sold for HKD 150,000.00 (€ 14,875.27) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yang Jin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of Zhang Yiniang in September 2011 with an auction result of USD 482,500.00 (€ 358,762.73).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Yang Jin erzielte im Mai 2013 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy wurde die Arbeit Orchids für HKD 150.000,00 (€ 14.875,27) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 60.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yang Jin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of Zhang Yiniang im September 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 482.500,00 (€ 358.762,73).
