Sold at the lower estimate price

The work Purple Mountain Observatory by Yuan Yunfu was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2015. The result of HKD 500,000.00 (€ 57,785.34) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of HKD 500,000.00 – 800,000.00. Admittedly, works by Yuan Yunfu have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Jiangnan Waterscape (Diptych) in April 2015 with an auction result of HKD 3,440,000.00 (€ 397,563.16).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis

Die Arbeit Purple Mountain Observatory von Yuan Yunfu kam im April 2015 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von HKD 500.000,00 (€ 57.785,34) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 500.000,00 – 800.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Yuan Yunfu auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Jiangnan Waterscape (Diptych) im April 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 3.440.000,00 (€ 397.563,16).
