Artwork auctioned at eight times the upper estimate price
The work Confession Series by Hou Junming was worth HKD 480,000.00 (€ 44,942.90) to a buyer in April 2007. This price was achieved in the auction Chinese Contemporary Art II at Sothebys in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 60,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hou Junming - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work New Paradise (Set Of Seven), which sold at auction in October 2007 for HKD 1,807,500.00 (€ 161,160.84).
