The work Body In Scenery No. 3 by Shi Chong was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2012. It achieved a price of HKD 3,380,000.00 (€ 329,338.57), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 30%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Shi Chong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Walking Man II, which sold at auction in December 2020 for HKD 8,850,000.00 (€ 933,483.24).
