A top price for Ying Yeping
When the work Wuyi Mountains by Ying Yeping was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2013, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 70,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than 14 times as high at HKD 990,000.00 (€ 98,176.78). This high result makes Wuyi Mountains the most expensive artwork by Ying Yeping that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Ying Yeping
Als die Arbeit Wuyi Mountains von Ying Yeping im Mai 2013 bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 70.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 990.000,00 (€ 98.176,78) mehr als 14-mal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Wuyi Mountains zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Ying Yeping, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
