Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Calligraphy Couplet In Clerical Script by Yi Bingshou was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2017, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of HKD 1,000,000.00 – 1,500,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for HKD 937,500.00 (€ 110,658.56). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yi Bingshou - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Poems In Kaishu, which sold at auction in April 2015 for HKD 3,200,000.00 (€ 369,826.20).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Calligraphy Couplet In Clerical Script von Yi Bingshou im April 2017 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 1.000.000,00 – 1.500.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für HKD 937.500,00 (€ 110.658,56) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Yi Bingshou mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Poems In Kaishu beobachtet, die im April 2015 für HKD 3.200.000,00 (€ 369.826,20) versteigert wurde.
