The work River By The Mountain Pass by Lu Xiaoman was sold in the Fine Chinese Paintings auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2015. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 137,500.00 (€ 16,063.67), 72% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lu Xiaoman - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Horses In The Autumn Woods, which sold at auction in April 2021 for HKD 403,200.00 (€ 43,168.88).
