Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Temples Among Autumn Mountains by Kun Can was sold in the Fine Classical Chinese Paintings & Calligraphy auction at Sothebys in New York in March 2015. The auction ended at the price of USD 150,000.00 (€ 139,651.80), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 120,000.00 – 150,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Kun Can - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sleeping On The Rock, which sold at auction in October 2014 for HKD 5,290,000.00 (€ 544,620.91).
