Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Lady Coming Home by Fan Xu was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2016. It changed hands for a price of HKD 32,500.00 (€ 3,960.34) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of HKD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Fan Xu - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Beauty Catching Butterflies, which sold at auction in November 2016 for HKD 112,100.00 (€ 13,660.13).
