The work Scholars on the Mountain by Lou Bo'An was sold in the Fine Chinese Modern Paintings auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2014. It achieved a price of HKD 750,000.00 (€ 70,931.09), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 50%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lou Bo'An - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape, which sold at auction in November 2011 for HKD 1,736,000.00 (€ 166,076.86).
