Auction result well in line with expectations

In May 2019 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy Including Property from the Chokaido Museum Collection, which included the work Running-Standard Script Calligraphy by Yuan Mei. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 200,000.00 – 400,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 250,000.00 (€ 28,612.43) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Yuan Mei have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Letters in March 2016 with an auction result of USD 212,500.00 (€ 186,567.16).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Mai 2019 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy Including Property from the Chokaido Museum Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Running-Standard Script Calligraphy von Yuan Mei zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 200.000,00 – 400.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 250.000,00 (€ 28.612,43) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Yuan Mei auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Letters im März 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 212.500,00 (€ 186.567,16).
