Dieses Kunstwerk von Kong Xiaoyu erzielte im März 2018 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Fine Classical Chinese Paintings & Calligraphy wurde die Arbeit Flowers Of Four Seasons für USD 12.500,00 (€ 10.146,10) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 6.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Kong Xiaoyu auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Sacred Articles im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 460.200,00 (€ 52.600,18).
