Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Landscape After Li Xianxi by Sheng Maoye was worth HKD 250,000.00 (€ 29,508.95) to a buyer in April 2017. This price was achieved in the auction Fine Classical Chinese Paintings at Sothebys in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 80,000.00 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).
