齊白石畫作拍出9.3億天價 成全球最貴中國藝術品

A collection of 12 beautiful landscapes produced by Qi Baishi, the ink-brush master artist of modern China, grossed 931.5 million yuan at a Beijing auction.

日前，在北京的一場拍賣會上，中國現代水墨藝術大師齊白石創作的一套12幅優美風景畫拍出了總價9.315億元的高價。

The price set a new record for any piece of Chinese artwork sold at auction worldwide.

這一價格刷新了中國藝術品在全球範圍內拍賣的紀錄。

The fierce bidding race began at 450 million yuan, and a telephone bidder eventually won this momentum body of Qi's work.

這場激烈的競價比賽起價爲4.5億元，而最終一位電話競拍者贏得了齊白石的這一傑作。

The price also promotes Qi to be the first Chinese artist whose work has been sold for more than $100 million at auction.

該價格也使得齊白石成爲首位在拍賣會上作品售價超過1億美元的中國藝術家。

In 2010, an 18th-century famille porcelain vase made during the reign of Qing Emperor Qianlong fetched 43 million pounds at an auction in London.

2010年，清朝乾隆年間的一件18世紀粉彩瓷花瓶在倫敦的一次拍賣會上拍出了4300萬英鎊的價格。

Titled Twelve Landscape Screens, each of the paintings is framed in a vertical shaft of 1.8 meters long. Painted in 1925, they each show a lively natural scene with an elegant palette.

齊白石的這一畫作名爲《山水十二條屏》，每屏畫作都被裝裱在長1.8米的立軸中。該作品創作於1925年，每屏畫作都以優雅的配色展現出一片栩栩如生的自然風光。
