A top price for Zhou Yong

When the work A Literary Gathering by Zhou Yong was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2016, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 18,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 93,750.00 (€ 83,422.32). This high result makes A Literary Gathering the most expensive artwork by Zhou Yong that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für Zhou Yong

Als die Arbeit A Literary Gathering von Zhou Yong im September 2016 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 18.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 93.750,00 (€ 83.422,32) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht A Literary Gathering zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Zhou Yong, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
