A top price for Jin Nong - as previously expected
The work Calligraphy In Qi Script by Jin Nong was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2015. The price achieved of HKD 7,520,000.00 (€ 878,536.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 7,000,000.00 – 8,000,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Calligraphy In Qi Script is the most expensive artwork by Jin Nong that we have observed at auctions so far.
