Auction introduction: Of fan paintings in private hands, those in the collection of Xiaowanliutang are among the most widely recognised. Xiaowanliutang is the studio name of prominent late Qing dynasty collectors Lian Quan (1868-1931) and his wife Wu Zhiying, who primarily obtained from the collections of his relatives, brothers Gong Benang and Gong Yu. Following the success of the previous season, we are delighted to present the second part of Painting and Calligraphy on Fans from the Xiao Wan Liu Tang Collection. Brimming with brilliance, this is an auction not to be missed.
