This artwork by Mao Yan achieved an unexpectedly high price at POLY in Hong Kong in October 2015. In the Chinese and Asian Modern and Contemporary Art auction, the work Sharp-born Black Rose sold for HKD 8,614,000.00 (€ 1,006,344.87) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 4,800,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Mao Yan; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Standing Youth sold at auction in April 2016 with the realized price of HKD 9,440,000.00 (€ 1,063,557.38).
