The work Landscape After Huang Gongwang by Sheng Maoye was worth HKD 192,000.00 (€ 19,994.49) to a buyer in May 2005. This price was achieved in the auction FINE CLASSICAL CHINESE PAINTINGS AND CALLIGRAPHY at Christies 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 Sheng Maoye - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Saying Farewell In The Moonlight, which sold at auction in September 2016 for USD 75,000.00 (€ 66,737.85).
