The work Shakespeare. Taming of the Shrew, Induction, Scene II, A Room in the Lord’s House, Sly with Lord & attendants by Sunqua was sold in the China Trade Paintings: Selections from the Kelton Collection auction at Christies in London in November 2019. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 15,000.00 (€ 17,613.67), 25% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Sunqua - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Hongs of Canton, showing the French, American, British and Dutch flags, which sold at auction in May this year for GBP 60,480.00 (€ 70,368.88).
