Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Xu Zhao achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2019. In the Fine Chinese Paintings auction, the work Scenery Of Mount Huang sold for HKD 162,500.00 (€ 18,497.23) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 60,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Xu Zhao; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Landscape After Ni Zan sold at auction in October 2014 with the realized price of HKD 250,000.00 (€ 25,738.23).
