1 The great call 2 of China Despite the restrictions on travel and viewing, the market for Chinese works of art has appeared remarkably robust in the year of coronavirus. Roland Arkell reports on the highpoints of the recent round of London and UK regional sales

4

Sales of Chinese works of art remain among the most important in the calendar for UK auction houses – a traditional area of the market with plenty of positives and one where Honest, period objects with damage the rewards are occasionally big. Given the can be more eagerly contested than circumstances, this year’s November series “ others in pristine condition over was more than up to scratch. 3 Sourcing difficulties arose during which doubts have been cast lockdown (Sotheby’s and Christie’s sales were only cushioned by consignments accrued for spring sales that did not happen) but the demand for Chinese taste material appears unchecked. Only one London sale (a single-owner private Below: Lazarus Halstead, specialist at Chiswick Auctions, collection of Qing porcelain at Sotheby’s) alongside a Qianlong mark and period vase sold at £370,000. had take-up below 70%. Strong results were recorded for Transitional and Kangxi blue and white, the best objects from the pre-dynastic era and Yongzheng and Qianlong mark and period wares. In the absence of Ming masterworks, the Yongzheng and Qianlong mark and period wares continue to set the market standard – with significant condition issues no longer a barrier to bidding. A house record at Chiswick Auctions for a broken 18th century tianqiuping and the white- glove response to the Hope Smith collection at Bonhams underline that honest, period objects with damage can be more eagerly contested than others in pristine condition over which doubts have been cast. That said, there are always those willing to take a gamble that an auctioneer or their consultants might have got it wrong when deeming reign marks and signatures to be apocryphal or honorific. Multi-estimate bids for objects of uncertain date (and the occasional reluctance to actually pay for them) are very much par for the course. The Woolley & Wallis Asian sale series, postponed until December 7-8, is still to come. n 12 | 5 December 2020 antiquestradegazette.com

Though he began his current exhibition as a project to coincide with Halloween, New York drawings dealer Christopher Bishop argues that The Magic of the Draughtsman: Images of the Occult suits this rather bonkers year as a whole. “In a time of crisis, people will revert to astrology and ways of thinking that usually go under the radar,” he tells ATG, tying together one of the ideas of German art historian Aby Warburg (1866-1929), whose writings helped inspire the show, as well as anecdotal evidence 3 that the pandemic has sparked a growing enthusiasm for star charts and mysticism. 1.
