Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Poems In Cursive Script by Zhang Bi was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2014. The result of USD 50,000.00 (€ 36,292.37) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 50,000.00 – 80,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Zhang Bi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Thousand Character Classic In Cursive Script in March 2015 with an auction result of USD 874,000.00 (€ 813,704.50).
