The work At the Rocky Brook by Lim Cheng Hoe was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2013. It achieved a price of HKD 81,250.00 (€ 7,703.40), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 48%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lim Cheng Hoe - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Boats In The Singapore River, which sold at auction in November 2015 for HKD 200,000.00 (€ 24,427.19).
