This artwork by Ku Fu-Sheng achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2018. In the Modern Asian Art auction, the work Alone sold for HKD 106,250.00 (€ 11,211.07) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ku Fu-Sheng - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sitting High(Painted In 1960), which sold at auction in March 2019 for HKD 330,400.00 (€ 37,489.28).
