Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Landscapes in Ancient Style by Wang Jiu was sold in the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings & Calligraphy auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2016. It changed hands for a price of HKD 75,000.00 (€ 8,668.61) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of HKD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wang Jiu - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bamboos Leaning on Rocks, which sold at auction in November 2012 for HKD 225,000.00 (€ 22,309.76).
