During the Ming Dynasty in China, which is 27 meters long, landscape paintings were sold at auctions for over 80 billion won.
According to online media Pungpai, the famous painter Obin's ‘Seven Yongbyeokdo-gwon’ was auctioned at a poly auction auction in Beijing on the 18th for 512.9 million yuan (about 85 billion won).
This is the highest price among Chinese artworks traded this year, and it is also the world's most expensive antiques, Pengpai said.
Obin worked at the court garden during the reign of the Great Emperor and drew a lot of strangely shaped rocks known as'Youngbyeokseok'.
Myeongdae's painter Lee Ha-jong liked it so much that he could not take it off his hand after he got Young Byeok-seok, so he invited Obin to draw this stone on the scroll.
Obin broke the formality and drew the image of Yeong Byeok-seok from 10 different sides, and Lee Jong-jong invited his literary friends to write a memorial service and footnote.
The painting was sold at a Sotheby's auction in New York in 1989 for $1.12 million and was the first in Chinese calligraphy to surpass $1 million.
