Ren Bonian's painting attainments had a far-reaching and extensive influence on Shanghai style art and China art in the 20th century. In view of this, in the art market, Ren Bonian's paintings have always been the goal of collectors. Coupled with the continuous in-depth study of Ren Bonian's art, the price of his paintings gradually coincides with the intrinsic value, rising and climbing. Although Ren Bonian died young, he became famous earlier. At the age of 30, he made his mark among Shanghai painters. Besides, he is admired for his elegant style, so his paintings have a solid position in the market. Ren Bonian is a high-yield painter and a high-quality painter. In addition to the collections of major museums, a considerable number of paintings are scattered among the people. Because his paintings are expensive and stable in the market, there are many fakes, and fakes emerge one after another. The market is full of a certain amount of "old fillers". The main forgers are Ni Mogeng, Ren Jin, Ren Xia, Jiang Hanting and others. Ni Mogeng's painting style is similar to Bai Nian's, and the standard is high. Those who understand it must observe it. When I was young, Ren Jin, Ren Xia and Jiang Hanting (Ren Jin sold some common seals of Ren Bonian to Jiang Hanting) made many fake paintings, and sometimes experts made mistakes. Ren Bonian's paintings went to auction long ago. Since 1986, Ren Bonian's paintings have been auctioned by Sotheby's and Christie's every year. The People's Book 1986 auctioned by Sotheby's in May fetched a high price of160,000 Hong Kong dollars, which proved that Ren Bonian's works had a high position in the auction market in Hong Kong at that time. 1988, the transaction price of its fine products has exceeded 700,000 yuan. 1990 because it is difficult to find fine products in the market, the price has dropped slightly.

Later, works of more than one million yuan were frequently sold.
