SUCCESSFUL ASIAN ART AUCTIONS

The Asian Art auctions at Koller on 2 June realised more than 2 ½ times the pre-sale estimate.

Enthusiastic bidding from Asia, Europe and North America – on the telephone, online and (unusual this past year) in the saleroom – pushed the prices of many works far beyond expectations, setting several records in the process.
