Discover the rich history and artistic legacy of Admiral Edward Hobart Seymour (1840-1929) in this exclusive auction featuring an exquisite array of paintings, calligraphy, porcelain, and ceramics from his personal collection. These exceptional pieces, with their fascinating provenance, are a testament to Seymour's remarkable life and his deep connection to China.
This remarkable collection hails from Edward Hobart Seymour's own family. Seymour, a distinguished Royal Navy officer and the commander of the Eight-Nation Alliance during the Boxer Rebellion, had a deep connection to China. His experiences during the Second Opium War and his later role in safeguarding British nationals in China led to a lifelong fascination with Chinese culture and art.
In addition to the Edward Hobart Seymour Collection, our auction features a diverse selection of jade, woodwork, copperware, and more, generously provided by consignors from around the world. Explore the beauty and craftsmanship of these exceptional items, adding to the richness of our auction.
