Upper estimate price exceeded by 34 %.
The work Duren Sutra by Zhao Mengfu was sold in the Fine Classical Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2006. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 336,000.00 (€ 33,749.24), 34% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Zhao Mengfu achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Landscape And Calligraphy in April this year with an auction result of HKD 42,930,000.00 (€ 43,839,929.35).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 34 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Duren Sutra von Zhao Mengfu wurde im Mai 2006 in der Auktion Fine Classical Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 336.000,00 (€ 33.749,24) und damit 34% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Zhao Mengfu erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Landscape And Calligraphy im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 42.930.000,00 (€ 43.839.929,35).
