Record Setting Auctions for Chinese Art

In 2012 Kaminski Auctions set a new auction house record in Chinese art. Five Chinese 20th century paintings by Qi Bashi sold at their Fine Asian Art and Antique Sale for a record $2.3 million dollars. Signed and sealed by Qi Bashi, all five paintings were exquisite examples of Chinese art on 20th century scroll paintings of ink and color on paper.

Kaminski Auctions was proud to present these paintings are part of the Asian art collection of Wen Tsan Yu and most contained a dedication as well as his personal seal. Included in this collection of Asian art was his exquisitely painted fans, perhaps best recognized being a 20th century fan of paper leaf and featuring painting by Wang Yun (1888-1934) on reverse with calligraphy by Zhu Nuzhen.

Visit us throughout the year for our auctions for the most desirable Chinese and Asian art and antiques.

We at Kaminski Auctions are saddened to hear the news of, former First Lady, Rosalynn Carter’s passing.

She was a remarkable woman, embodying grace and resilience. Her dedication to mental health advocacy and humanitarian efforts has left an indelible mark. It was an honor of ours to have known her and to have borne witness to the positive impact she made in the world. May her legacy inspire others to continue her work.

Our heartfelt condolences to President Carter, her beloved husband of 77 years, and their family and friends.
