FROM THE COLLECTION OF PROFESSOR WEN FONG (LOTS 822-823)A towering figure in the history of Chinese art, Wen Fong (1930-2018) was born in Shanghai and earned his doctoral degree from Princeton University, where he taught Chinese art history from 1954 until his retirement in 1999. Concurrent with his contributions at Princeton, he served from 1971 to 2000 as a special consultant to the Department of Asian Art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. His vision shaped the Met’s collection of Asian art and drove important acquisitions, adding masterpieces to the Museum’s world-renowned collection. Professor Fong was a prolific scholar, educator and connoisseur who trained generations of art historians and contributed to seminal publications on Chinese art. Part of Professor Fong’s personal collection was offered by Christie’s in May 2016 and achieved exceptional results.
