Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Orchid, Bamboo, And Rocks by Xia Hui was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2014. The price achieved of USD 6,000.00 (€ 4,355.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Admittedly, works by Xia Hui have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Bamboo In The Wind in November 2013 with an auction result of HKD 212,500.00 (€ 20,147.36).
