This artwork by Chau Hang achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in December 2021. In the Exquisite Eye: Chinese Paintings Online including the Collection of Sun Ah Book Center auction, the work Gingko and Bird sold for HKD 37,500.00 (€ 4,247.66) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 20,000.00.
