Upper estimate price exceeded by 34 %.
The work Post-Classical Series: After Mona Lisa by Wang Guangyi was sold in the Contemporary Art Evening Sale auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2021. It achieved a price of HKD 8,040,000.00 (€ 860,807.98), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 34%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wang Guangyi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mao AO, which sold at auction in October 2007 for GBP 2,036,000.00 (€ 2,923,829.97).
