This artwork by Zhu Xinjian achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Hong Kong in October 2021. In the Chinese Paintings From the Yanqinzhai CollectionThe Online Sale auction, the work A Sensuous Illusion sold for HKD 57,375.00 (€ 6,382.17) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Zhu Xinjian achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bird on a Branch in April this year with an auction result of HKD 102,000.00 (€ 104,161.96).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Zhu Xinjian erzielte im Oktober 2021 bei Bonhams in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Chinese Paintings From the Yanqinzhai CollectionThe Online Sale wurde die Arbeit A Sensuous Illusion für HKD 57.375,00 (€ 6.382,17) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 20.000,00.

Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bird on a Branch im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 102.000,00 (€ 104.161,96).
