The work Portrait of Monk Liuzhou by Fei Danxu was worth HKD 2,016,000.00 (€ 239,342.47) to a buyer in May last year. 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 500,000.00 many times over.
