A top price for Guo Weiqu
In October 2019 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Fine Chinese Paintings, which included the work Baskets Of Harvest by Guo Weiqu. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 200,000.00 (€ 22,859.70), 67% above the upper estimate. This high result makes Baskets Of Harvest the most expensive artwork by Guo Weiqu that we have observed at auctions so far.
