PROPERTY FROM PROFESSOR CHI CHONG LEE (C. C. LEE) (LOTS 1489-1494)Professor C.C. Lee was an avid art lover, whose study of Chinese ink painting began at an early age. Her systematic training started in 1964, when she enrolled in the Chinese University of Hong Kong’s (CUHK) Fine Arts department. Among the distinguished faculty of the department Professor Ding Yanyong had a particularly profound impact on the future Professor Lee. Ding Yanyong’s classes were convivial affairs, held on a small scale and characterised by an affinity between the teacher and his pupils. Ding took great pleasure in providing practical demonstrations in his classes, and would dedicate and gift works to his students on their graduation. Ding recognised Lee’s deep commitment to her studies and her great affinity for art, and dedicated several works of particularly high quality to her over her four years of study. Part of her collection was sold in Christie’s 2018 Spring sale, the proceeds was used to establish Ms. Lee Chi Chong Scholarship (In Memory of Prof. Ting Yen Yong) at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
