A top price for Zheng Wenzhuo
When the work Rubbing Of Ancient Vessels by Zheng Wenzhuo was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 50,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than 13 times as high at HKD 687,500.00 (€ 77,413.52). This high result makes Rubbing Of Ancient Vessels the most expensive artwork by Zheng Wenzhuo that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Zheng Wenzhuo
Als die Arbeit Rubbing Of Ancient Vessels von Zheng Wenzhuo im Oktober 2018 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 50.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 687.500,00 (€ 77.413,52) mehr als 13-mal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Rubbing Of Ancient Vessels zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Zheng Wenzhuo, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
