Further details
The masters of You Yi Tang are avid collectors, especially of Zhang Daqian’s paintings. They formed a close bond with Panorama Magazine publisher Shen Weichuang. Fascinated by traditional opera, they built a collection centered on Zhang Daqian and figures related to Peking opera. Their collecting philosophy places special emphasis on provenance, historical anecdotes, and the lineage of ownership.
This presentation features seven masterpieces by Zhang Daqian from the You Yi Tang collection, spanning different periods, styles, and formats of the artist’s illustrious career—a truly splendid ensemble. Among them is a delicate round fan painting of lotuses, created by Zhang for his beloved daughter, as well as a heartfelt work made for his physician as a token of gratitude. Sailing (lot 151), monumental in scale among works of its kind, masterfully combines fine brushwork with freehand expression, representing a masterpiece from Zhang’s Brazilian sojourn. Sailing Home (lot 152), splashed ink on Yuan-dynasty paper, was a gift for his old friend Tai Jingnong, bearing witness to the profound friendship between two titans of Taiwanese art and culture.
Together, these exquisite works offer a glimpse into the collector’s discerning eye and lifelong dedication, presenting connoisseurs and collectors with a rare opportunity for appreciation.
