This artwork by Zhu Cheng achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2015. In the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction, the work Eagle, Pine And Narcissus sold for HKD 62,500.00 (€ 7,633.50) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Zhu Cheng - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape Album, which sold at auction in November 2016 for HKD 225,000.00 (€ 27,417.75).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Zhu Cheng erzielte im November 2015 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy wurde die Arbeit Eagle, Pine And Narcissus für HKD 62.500,00 (€ 7.633,50) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 30.000,00.
