The series of twelve paintings are among the most highly valued items in the auction, and all carry dedications to the collector himself, providing reliable provenance for each painting.

Zhang Guohe was a prominent figure in twentieth century Chinese history. A former Colonel of Chiang Kai-shek’s army, he attended the Japanese surrender in Hunan Zhijian, in August 1945. After completing a law degree at the University of Chicago, he joined the United Nations in 1949. Throughout the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, Mr. Zhang would regularly return to visit China. On one of his trips he met with Soong Qing Ling, the wife of Sun Yat-Sen, first president and founding father of the Republic of China.

During his lifetime Mr. Zhang was an avid collector of many prominent and influential Chinese artists. His collection includes three works from Huang Junbi, an artist known for his significant influence on the development of Taiwanese ink painting. The three works by Junbi on offer at Kaminski ‘s sale capture the artist’s signature style and subject matter. Lot 7115 depicts a waterfall and is valued at $30,000 to $50,000.
