Further Details
Prior to World War II, Mr. Chew Lian Seng managed a rubber plantation in Malaysia and later entered the banking industry after the war. Mr. Chew had a fondness for art and was one of the patrons of Xu Beihong’s art exhibitions during his residency in Singapore. Christie’s has presented works by Xu Beihong and Yu Dafu from Mr. Chew Lian Seng’s family collection in several auctions, all of which were sold at attractive prices. Both calligraphy works in this collection were acquired directly from the artists bearing the dedication “Liansheng” and have been kept in the family until now.
