This artwork by Wu Bin achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in December last year. In the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction, the work Pavilions amidst Cloudy Mountains sold for HKD 1,197,000.00 (€ 143,443.07) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 600,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Wu Bin; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Fishing In Autumn sold at auction in October 2019 with the realized price of HKD 1,375,000.00 (€ 157,160.47).
