The work Summer Melody by Hong Ling was sold in the 20th Century Art Day Sale auction at Christies in Hong Kong in November this year. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 1,008,000.00 (€ 118,283.83), 68% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hong Ling - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Late Autumn, which sold at auction in November 2015 for HKD 3,640,000.00 (€ 444,574.89).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 68 % übertroffen
