Upper estimate price exceeded by 100 %.
This artwork by José Joya achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2018. In the Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Art auction, the work Moss And White Sand sold for HKD 3,000,000.00 (€ 316,547.95) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 1,500,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by José Joya; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Elysium sold at auction in May 2017 with the realized price of HKD 5,100,000.00 (€ 582,351.37).
