Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Oil Painting Studio No. 2 by Mao Yan was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2016. The price achieved of HKD 2,000,000.00 (€ 235,358.51) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 1,500,000.00 – 2,500,000.00. Admittedly, works by Mao Yan have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Standing Youth in April 2016 with an auction result of HKD 9,440,000.00 (€ 1,063,557.38).
