The artist’s main concern was not, of course, anatomical \ncorrectness but the overall formal completeness of the painting. \nWith the development of her expressive powers came a corresponding \nstudy of technical processes. There is also a decreasing naturalism, \na heightening of distortion and tension. The nuanced disproportions \nwere not spontaneous but the result of calculated pictorial decisions. \nEven more than these formal parallels, the innate human dignity with \nwhich poverty and physical misfortune are not depicted may be counted \nas one of Anita Magsaysay-Ho’s most magnanimous traits as a painter.","lot_group":"PAINTING","lot_details_html":null,"alias":null,"hp":5000000,"bp":0.168,"isWithdrawn":0,"accounting_hp":5000000,"userBid":5926,"isPaid":0,"userId":22,"lot_status":"SOLD","isDone":1,"bid_history_id":null,"reserve_price":null,"hammer_price":5840000,"fav":0},"image":[{"id":30971,"img_url":"https://leongallery.sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/v2/auction/40/65/lot/99.jpg","isFeatured":1}]},"increment":[5500000,6000000,6500000,7000000,7500000,8000000,8500000,9000000,9500000,10000000,11000000,12000000,13000000,14000000,15000000,16000000,17000000,18000000,19000000,20000000],"prev":98,"next":100,"count_bid":0,"bid_history":[],"tokenExpired":1}
