Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
The work The Anouymous Mountain Raised By A Meter by Ma Liuming was worth USD 30,000.00 (€ 25,547.13) to a buyer in March 2021. This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Art Asia at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 6,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ma Liuming - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Baby No. 7, which sold at auction in May 2006 for HKD 900,000.00 (€ 90,399.75).
