Precious Painting Masterpieces on Auction
2007-05-21 12:19:39 未知
A masterpiece of the late famous Chinese painter Xu Beihong, Portrait of Jennie, is likely to fetch more than 100 million Taiwan dollars (about 3 million U.S. dollars) at a Christie's International sale in Taiwan. An official with the auction house revealed the figure after a pre-auction show came to end in Taipei on Sunday. The painting features a cheongsam-clad Cantonese woman, known as Jennie, in a rattan rocking-chair, her form reflected by the polished floor. Jenny was a friend of the vice consul of Belgium in Singapore, who commissioned the portrait during Xu's sojourn in the Southeast Asian nation. A work by well-known Chinese artist Li Keran, All the Mountains Blanketed in Red, is also among the exhibits at the show. The painting, inspired by a poem of late Chinese leader Mao Zedong featuring a splendid landscape, is expected to be sold at 130 million Taiwan dollars (about 3.9 million U.S. dollars).
