Xu Beihong's Lady

I might as well continue the Chinese art theme while it's hot, all thanks to Red Ken calling the immigration officers at Heathrow Airport "racist"! This Portrait of a Lady by Xu Beihong (1939) will be up for grabs at Christie’s Hong Kong 20th Century Chinese Art Sale on 27 May. I prefer his Slave and Lion, which Christie's Hong Kong flogged for US $7 million last year (CLICK).
