Artwork auctioned at seven times the upper estimate price
The work Flowers And Rock by Ma Quan was worth HKD 360,000.00 (€ 39,389.31) to a buyer in November 2005. This price was achieved in the auction FINE CLASSICAL CHINESE PAINTINGS AND CALLIGRAPHY at Christies in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 50,000.00 many times over. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Ma Quan; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Flower, Bird and Insect sold at auction in November 2016 with the realized price of HKD 475,000.00 (€ 57,881.92).
