This artwork by Qian Mu achieved an unexpectedly high price at China Guardian in Hong Kong in October 2013.

However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Qian Mu - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Calligraphy In Kaishu, which sold at auction in April 2013 for HKD 562,500.00 (€ 55,062.46).
