This work of art by Lo Ch'ing could be acquired at Christies in New York in August this year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Summer Reverie: Chinese Paintings Online auction, the work Ten Thousand Peaks of White Snow changed hands for HKD 27,720.00 (€ 3,260.73) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of HKD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lo Ch'ing - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Sun also Rises, 2016, which sold at auction in May this year for GBP 10,837.50 (€ 12,609.50).
