Artwork auctioned at six times the upper estimate price
The work Snowscape under Moonlight by Song Yugui was worth HKD 693,000.00 (€ 82,273.97) to a buyer in May last year. This price was achieved in the auction Fine Chinese Modern and Contemporary Ink Paintings at Christies in Hong Kong and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of HKD 100,000.00 many times over. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Song Yugui; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Waterfall in Autumn sold at auction in May 2016 with the realized price of HKD 1,120,000.00 (€ 129,451.28).
