Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Sulu Stories: Archipelago by Yee I-Lann was sold in the Modern & Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2012. It achieved a price of HKD 75,000.00 (€ 7,307.81), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 15%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yee I-Lann - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Kinabalu Series: Huminodun, which sold at auction in May 2008 for HKD 295,500.00 (€ 24,327.47).
