Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
The work Horse and Groom by Pu Zuo was worth HKD 140,000.00 (€ 14,766.97) to a buyer in December 2020. This price was achieved in the auction Chinese PaintingsThe Online Sale at Bonhams in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 30,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pu Zuo - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Rabbits, which sold at auction in May 2014 for HKD 500,000.00 (€ 47,287.39).
