Extract the Essence from Ancients - Ancient Calligraphy and Paintings"

The attraction of ancient calligraphy and painting is that its resources are becoming increasingly scarce, and the other is that it has been appreciated by literati and scholars of the past dynasties. This season’s special collection of ancient paintings and calligraphy is a collection of 80 excellent works. Ming and Qing paintings are a major collection. A few odd pieces have been selected, ranging from Yao Gongshou in the early Ming to Tang Yin and Qiu Ying, who are known as the "Four Ming Master". Clean and well kept. Tang Yin’s "Dead Wood, Bamboo and Stone Picture" fan and Yao Gongshou’s "Reading Picture" are with well-documented articles, both published as many as seven times. Well-circulated by many connoisseurs; the other one is the hand scroll " Eighteen Scholars Step on Yingzhou" by Qiu Ying. Which were successively collected by famous masters such as Song Nao, Bian Yongyu, Ma Yuelu, Weng Fanggang, Chen Yan, and Zhang Qin. Many inscribed and postscripts, and the handroll is finely preserved. There are very few works with this quality on the market, and they are on auction this season. It is really rare, and those who know it will cherish it so much. After years of shuffling the art market, the resilience of ancient paintings and calligraphy has become increasingly prominent. The scarcity and preciousness of ancient paintings and calligraphy have become more and more popular with the passage of time, and the artistic value and market value it contains has been gradually agreed and accepted by buyers, the market continues to heat up is the most direct manifestation. When comes to the auction time, collectors are welcome to come to the scene to appreciate the masterpiece.
