A top price for Koon Wai Bong - as previously expected

The work Gentlemen (Set Of Thirty-Six) by Koon Wai Bong was sold in the Contemporary Ink Art : Journey auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2016. It changed hands for a price of HKD 375,000.00 (€ 44,129.72) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of HKD 300,000.00 – 400,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Gentlemen (Set Of Thirty-Six) is the most expensive artwork by Koon Wai Bong that we have observed at auctions so far.
