Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Li Bai'S Poem In Running Script by Zhang Ruitu was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2017. The price achieved of HKD 300,000.00 (€ 33,018.54) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 260,000.00 – 320,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Zhang Ruitu achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Eighteen Luohan in September 2016 with an auction result of USD 2,230,000.00 (€ 1,984,338.85).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Li Bai'S Poem In Running Script von Zhang Ruitu kam im Oktober 2017 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 300.000,00 (€ 33.018,54) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 260.000,00 – 320.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Zhang Ruitu erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Eighteen Luohan im September 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.230.000,00 (€ 1.984.338,85).
