Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work View of a Temple by Pham Hau was worth HKD 300,000.00 (€ 32,776.35) to a buyer in May 2018. This price was achieved in the auction 20th Century & Contemporary Art & Design Evening Sale at Phillips in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 90,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pham Hau achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Golden Sunset over Halong Bay in November 2021 with an auction result of HKD 9,732,500.00 (€ 1,082,155.36).
