A top price for Zhang Shanzi

This artwork by Zhang Shanzi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2011. In the Fine Chinese Modern Paintings auction, the work Prowling Tiger sold for HKD 4,220,000.00 (€ 403,712.18) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 1,500,000.00. This high result makes Prowling Tiger the most expensive artwork by Zhang Shanzi that we have observed at auctions so far.
