Further details
Zhong Hanqi was a stock trader in Hong Kong. He loved art, particularly Western Impressionist paintings. Zhong had a very good relationship with the Zhongyuan Painting Society, an active art association in the 1960s. He frequently let the painting society use his office walls to hang artworks without charge. Hong Kong's first commercial gallery, Chatham Galleries, was opened in Tsim Sha Tsui in 1962 after its owner consulted Zhong, marking the beginning of commercial art galleries in the city.
