A top price for Aya Takano

Here, the upper estimate of HKD 400,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 420,000.00 (€ 428,902.17). With this result, Sweetness In The Dark (Painted In 2009) is even the most expensive work of art by Aya Takano that we have observed at auctions so far.
