The work Calligraphy in Cursive Script by Wang Duo was sold in the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2019. It achieved a price of HKD 625,000.00 (€ 72,488.43), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wang Duo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Poems in Cursive Script Calligraphy in May 2011 with an auction result of HKD 32,020,000.00 (€ 2,864,337.79).
