Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
The work Calligraphy Couplet in Running Script by Yao Xie was worth HKD 10,837.50 (€ 1,205.52) to a buyer in October 2021. This price was achieved in the auction Chinese Paintings From the Yanqinzhai CollectionThe Online Sale at Bonhams in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 2,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yao Xie achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Plum Tree in October 2018 with an auction result of HKD 275,000.00 (€ 30,965.41).
