Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Zeng Guofan achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in March 2018. In the Fine Classical Chinese Paintings & Calligraphy auction, the work Su Shi'S Poems In Running Script sold for USD 200,000.00 (€ 162,337.66) - well above the upper estimate of USD 80,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Zeng Guofan; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Calligraphy Couplet in Xingshu II sold at auction in April last year with the realized price of HKD 1,890,000.00 (€ 228,514.76).
