NEW YORK, NY -- Doyle will hold an auction of Asian Works of Art on Tuesday, September 17, 2024 at 10am. This highly-anticipated auction presents the arts of China, Japan and throughout Asia spanning the Neolithic Period through the 20th century. Showcased will be exceptional porcelains, bronzes, jades, snuff bottles, pottery, scholar’s objects, furniture and paintings from prominent collections and estates.

The Alan Oliner Collection of Asian Works of Art
Highlighting the sale is the Alan Oliner Collection encompassing art from China, Japan, the Islamic world and beyond, with a notable emphasis on 17th century Chinese porcelain. The collection is distinguished by its breadth and exceptional quality. Unlike some collectors driven by personal notions of exoticism or antiquity, Mr. Oliner sought out fine examples of Early Qing porcelain, adhering to the strict standards of the period. It is a collection that took study and taste, as well as patience. Mr. Oliner not only possessed a keen eye for porcelain but also exercised excellent judgment in selecting trusted dealers, including venerable New York and London firms like Ralph M. Chait Galleries and Marchant, as well as other fine sellers. A number of the pieces also bear distinguished provenance, with examples from the collections of J.P. Morgan, U.S. President Herbert Hoover and John D. Rockefeller, Jr.

Mr. Oliner’s meticulously kept invoices reveal the methodical and unhurried acquisition of porcelain representing the fantastic range of styles popular through the Shunzhi and Kangxi periods of the 17th century. Porcelain masterworks in the collection feature blue and white wares evoking the earlier Ming Dynasty, intricately molded and glazed soft paste sculptures reflecting both Daoist and Buddhist influences, and the novel forms and decorative palettes that first appeared in the early decades of the Qing Dynasty. The collection offers an excellent survey of 17th century porcelain.

The Alan Oliner Collection is certain to delight connoisseurs of fine Chinese porcelain and honor Mr. Oliner’s legacy as a distinguished American collector dedicated to preserving Chinese history with scholarship, care and dignity.  Read More  View Lots
