Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
The work Calligraphy Couplet In Kaishu by Yu Pingbo was worth HKD 212,500.00 (€ 20,705.46) to a buyer in April 2012. This price was achieved in the auction Fine Chinese Paintings at Sothebys in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 40,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yu Pingbo - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Poems In Kaishu, which sold at auction in October 2012 for HKD 596,000.00 (€ 59,333.23).
