This artwork by Yang Yanwen achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2018. In the Exquisite Eye: Chinese Paintings Online auction, the work Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove sold for HKD 52,500.00 (€ 5,735.86) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yang Yanwen - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Casting The Net, which sold at auction in December 2015 for HKD 175,000.00 (€ 20,789.21).
