Artwork auctioned at nine times the upper estimate price
The work Flowers by Fang Wanyi was worth HKD 562,500.00 (€ 55,782.26) to a buyer in May 2013. This price was achieved in the auction Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy at Christies in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 60,000.00 many times over. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Fang Wanyi; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Ink Plum Blossom sold at auction in April 2017 with the realized price of HKD 812,500.00 (€ 95,904.08).
