This artwork by Ren Xun achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in New York in March last year. In the The Reverend Richard Fabian Collection of Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy, Part V The Online Sale auction, the work Flowers of the four seasons sold for USD 27,812.50 (€ 25,072.12) - well above the upper estimate of USD 10,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ren Xun - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Phoenix, which sold at auction in October 2011 for HKD 740,000.00 (€ 68,338.71).
