Further details
This collection of Lingnan paintings belongs to Dr. Lee Tek Loon, a veteran art collector from Malaysia. Dr. Lee has a particular fondness for Lingnan art. He has established friendships with many Lingnan artists while acquiring paintings from private collections in Singapore and Malaysia. Over the past few decades, Dr. Lee has zealously built a large and magnificent collection of Lingnan paintings of exceptional quality. This collection has not been seen by the public for many years. Dr. Lee has privately published a catalog as a memento to share with friends, family, and like-minded collectors. Sunflowers by Zhao Shao’ang (Lot 627) was chosen as the catalog back cover.
