PROPERTY FROM A FRENCH PRIVATE COLLECTION In the 1940s, the French couple Mr and Mrs Mourot moved from France to Shanghai, China, to work at the Shanghai Alliance Francaise. The Mourots organised lectures, exchange conferences, musical performances and exhibitions for the Alliance. Lin Fengmian's French wife actively participated in these gatherings, later Mr and Mrs Mourot met Lin Fengmian amongst other artists such as Fu Baoshi in the 1940s. They started collecting Chinese paintings in the 1940-50s. Through genuine art appreciation and exchange, they established a deep cross-cultural friendship. In the 1980s, Mrs Mourot even went to Hong Kong deliberately to visit Lin Fengmian, demonstrating the close friendship between the couple and the Chinese artist.
