Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Ink Plum Blossoms by He Xiangning was worth HKD 275,000.00 (€ 31,303.01) to a buyer in April 2019. This price was achieved in the auction Fine Chinese Paintings at Sothebys in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 70,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by He Xiangning - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Monkey, which sold at auction in June 2015 for HKD 875,000.00 (€ 101,196.88).
