This work without title by Li Zhongsheng was sold in the 20th Century Chinese Art auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2009. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 920,000.00 (€ 89,610.39), 31% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Li Zhongsheng - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work No. 31, which sold at auction in October 2001 for TWD 6,237,500.00 (€ 200,448.96).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 31 % übertroffen
