FROM THE ESTATE OF MR. & MRS. KOO TSIEN-YEN
These three paintings by Zhang Daqian belong to the Estate of Mr. and Mrs. Koo Tsien-yen (aka William and Jean) of Palo Alto, California.
The Koo family immigrated to Palo Alto, California in 1963. While in California, Mr. Koo met and befriended Zhang Daqian and his son through their love for the arts and Chinese antiquities. In 1972, Mr. Koo was instrumental in putting together "Chang Dai-chien: A Retrospective Exhibition" at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco. Mr. Koo was not only acknowledged for his contribution to the success of this exhibit, but he was also one of the lenders to the exhibition.
