Fine Chinese Paintings and Works of Art

The upcoming Fine Chinese Paintings, Ceramics, Bronzes and Works of Art Auction presented by Gianguan Auctions offers a variety of Chinese fine art, jewelry, antiquities, pottery, and porcelain. Highlighted in the auction is a blue and white porcelain vase dating back to the Yuan Dynasty. Measuring around 14 inches tall, this vase is decorated with a dragon and leaf-like motifs at the rim.

From the Yuan Dynasty, the auction presents another highlight— an ink and paper lettering by Zhao Mengfu, a Chinese calligrapher.  Rejecting the general calligraphy style of his era, he imitated an older style of the Jin and Tang dynasties. Also featured in the sale is a landscape painting by Chen Jiang-Hong, a Chinese-born French painter. He is best known for his abstract works and gestural brushstrokes. Made with ink and color on paper, the artist’s painting demonstrates a combination of both traditional Chinese brush painting and the technique of American artists like Helen Frankenthaler. A blue-green glazed plate incised with dragons will be on offer as well. To view these items and explore more of this auction, register to bid on Invaluable.
