Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Silent Night by Liu Mengkuan was sold in the Fine Chinese Modern Paintings auction at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2019. It achieved a price of HKD 81,250.00 (€ 9,423.50), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 16%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Liu Mengkuan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Majestic Landscape of Mount Huang, which sold at auction in November 2018 for HKD 325,000.00 (€ 36,681.97).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
