Galerie Zacke’s seasonal Fine Asian Art auction presents a special selection of art from across the region, with an emphasis on religious sculpture. Among the leading lots are a Northern Qi limestone Buddha (lot 53), a thangka of the Seventeen-Deity Tara mandala (lot 29), and an archaistic bronze jue (lot 91). This is an excellent opportunity to enrich your collection during a quieter time in the global auction calendar.
