Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Chrysanthemums; Children at Play by Sha Fu was worth HKD 25,200.00 (€ 2,854.43) to a buyer in December 2021. This price was achieved in the auction Inkspiration: Chinese Paintings Online at Sothebys in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 8,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Sha Fu - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Figures After Old Masters, which sold at auction in September 2018 for USD 10,000.00 (€ 8,604.37).
