Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Admiring Bronze by Zhang Chong was sold in the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2012. The price achieved of HKD 250,000.00 (€ 26,043.35) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 200,000.00 – 300,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Zhang Chong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ink Peony, which sold at auction in November 2015 for HKD 475,000.00 (€ 58,014.58).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Admiring Bronze von Zhang Chong wurde im Mai 2012 in der Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 250.000,00 (€ 26.043,35) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Zhang Chong mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Ink Peony beobachtet, die im November 2015 für HKD 475.000,00 (€ 58.014,58) versteigert wurde.
