Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Horses by Huang Chih Chao was worth HKD 187,500.00 (€ 19,532.51) to a buyer in May 2012. This price was achieved in the auction Asian 20th Century Art (Day Sale) 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 Huang Chih Chao; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Lady with Horse sold at auction in May 2011 with the realized price of HKD 300,000.00 (€ 26,836.39).
