Features: The 20-volume China Fine Art and Calligraphy Auction Intelligence, the 5-volume Ancient Books Auction Intelligence, nearly a thousand renowned Chinese fine artists, millions of domestic auction records, covering over 30 domestic and international renowned auction houses. It comprehensively showcases the ups and downs and dramatic changes in the Chinese fine art and calligraphy auction market over the past two decades, with a special focus on the market trends of fine art and ancient books from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. This is a highly practical and user-friendly reference book for Chinese fine art and ancient books auctions. It helps collectors and investors gain a comprehensive understanding of the auction market trends, provides thorough appreciation information for art enthusiasts, and highlights the significant appreciation potential in art investment. Some artists also select their seals and inscriptions for separate presentation. Among the existing books on seals and inscriptions of artists, there is a tendency to focus on ancient artists, while modern and contemporary artists are largely absent. This series fills this gap, making a valuable contribution to supplementing the existing literature. The content of the series strives for comprehensiveness, accuracy, and vividness, making it highly practical. This series is primarily a reference book for providing information and data. Most of the image materials are sourced from the annual catalogues of various auction houses. However, we are neither able to nor willing to undertake the task of identifying the authenticity of the selected works. We hope readers can compare and analyze the works on their own while reading, which may help in enhancing their appreciation skills.
