Artwork auctioned at seven times the upper estimate price
The work Landscapes by Li Liufang was worth HKD 4,060,000.00 (€ 437,120.52) to a buyer in November 2017. This price was achieved in the auction Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy at Christies in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 550,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Li Liufang - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscapes, which sold at auction in March 2015 for USD 1,150,000.00 (€ 1,070,663.81).
