A top price for Lu Zishu
When the work Landscape After Ancient Artists by Lu Zishu was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in May 2016, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 50,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at HKD 187,500.00 (€ 21,671.53). This high result makes Landscape After Ancient Artists the most expensive artwork by Lu Zishu that we have observed at auctions so far.

Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Landscape After Ancient Artists zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Lu Zishu, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
