A top price for Li Chun-Shan

In May 2005 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction THE INCEPTION OF A NEW ERA - THE YAGEO FOUNDATION COLLECTION, which included the work Abstraction by Li Chun-Shan. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 3,928,000.00 (€ 409,054.01), 31% above the upper estimate. With this result, Abstraction is even the most expensive work of art by Li Chun-Shan that we have observed at auctions so far.
