In the Fine Chinese Paintings auction, the work Calligraphy in Kaishu sold for HKD 113,400.00 (€ 12,614.18) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 40,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Zhou Mengdie; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Calligraphy in Kaishu sold at auction in April last year with the realized price of HKD 138,600.00 (€ 16,757.75).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
