This artwork by Bao Jun achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2014. In the Fine Chinese Paintings auction, the work Calligraphy Couplet In Xingshu sold for HKD 125,000.00 (€ 12,869.11) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bao Jun - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Calligraphy Couplet In Running Script, which sold at auction in October 2019 for HKD 237,500.00 (€ 27,145.90).
