This artwork by Ma Jun achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Hong Kong in April 2019. In the Chinese Paintingsonline only auction, the work Sitting In A Lotus sold for HKD 20,400.00 (€ 2,322.11) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ma Jun - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Summer, which sold at auction in April 2014 for HKD 92,000.00 (€ 8,556.60).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Ma Jun erzielte im April 2019 bei Bonhams in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Chinese Paintingsonline only wurde die Arbeit Sitting In A Lotus für HKD 20.400,00 (€ 2.322,11) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 8.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Ma Jun mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Summer beobachtet, die im April 2014 für HKD 92.000,00 (€ 8.556,60) versteigert wurde.
