Entitled “Beauty and Beyond: Women in Chinese Art,” the 64-lot auction held by Bonhams last week was the first of its kind in Hong Kong, to shed light on the beauty of women across the traditional and modern art history of Chinese culture.
Each of the artworks encompassing different art forms pays tribute to the diversity and representation of femininity. Two of the star lots included a 16th/17 century Guanyin figure, as well as a stunning jade pavilion inspired by renowned Chinese play “Romance of the Western Chamber.”
Quite a number of the lots attracted fierce bidding among interested collectors, with a handful of hair accessories sold well above their presale estimates.
