This artwork by Chen Yixi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2010. In the Fine Chinese Classical Paintings and Calligraphy auction, the work Seven-Character Poem in Running Script sold for HKD 212,500.00 (€ 22,076.36) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 80,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Chen Yixi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Calligraphy in Three Styles, which sold at auction in November 2012 for HKD 524,000.00 (€ 51,956.96).
