A top price for Qian Weiqiao
When the work Landscapes After Old Masters by Qian Weiqiao was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2016, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 75,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than seven times as high at USD 550,000.00 (€ 489,410.93). This high result makes Landscapes After Old Masters the most expensive artwork by Qian Weiqiao that we have observed at auctions so far.
