This artwork by Masaaki Yamada achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Hong Kong in November 2021. In the Modern and Contemporary Art auction, the work Work B.134 sold for HKD 477,500.00 (€ 53,093.16) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 200,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Masaaki Yamada - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Work C. 98, which sold at auction in November 2017 for HKD 1,125,000.00 (€ 121,123.30).
