Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Untitled (and 2 Hold) by Jimmy Ong was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2011. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 60,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 62,500.00 (€ 5,979.15). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jimmy Ong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Nelli'S Dowry, which sold at auction in April 2008 for HKD 223,500.00 (€ 18,419.23).
