Further details
The Singapore-based collector was a lawyer, who made multiple trips to Mainland China, Hong Kong, and other places during the 1980s and 1990s. Due to his passion for art, he often spent his spare time frequenting cultural relic stores, Friendship Stores, and auction houses, acquiring many calligraphic works and paintings. Two works from his collection, including Wu Zuoren’s Yaks in the Snow purchased from Beijing Friendship Store and Li Keran’s Eight Buffaloes purchased from an early auction in Hong Kong, were offered in Christie’s auction in the past.
