This artwork by Zeng Fanzhi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in December 2021. In the 20th/21st Century Art Evening Sale: Worlds In A Hand auction, the work This Land so Rich in Beauty No. 2 sold for HKD 39,850,000.00 (€ 4,513,845.20) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 20,000,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Zeng Fanzhi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Last Supper, which sold at auction in October 2013 for HKD 180,440,000.00 (€ 17,122,818.89).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 99 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Zeng Fanzhi erzielte im Dezember 2021 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis.
