The Poon family was one of the most famous and influential Canton merchant houses founded at the height of the Qing dynasty. This generational heirloom collection, first assembled in the 18th century and continued into the 20th century, marks the inaugural Chinese sale of Sotheby’s Maison. This unique collection of Chinese calligraphy, paintings and works of art spanning a thousand years of history tells a powerful story of the continuum of classical thought and tradition.
