Sold at the lower estimate price
In September 2013 Sothebys in New York held the auction Fine Classical Chinese Paintings and Cal, which included the work Pipa Journey by Song Yu. The result of USD 5,000.00 (€ 3,694.13) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Admittedly, works by Song Yu have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Still life with flowers and chair. 2007. in June 2018 with an auction result of CHF 30,500.00 (€ 26,323.46).
