Nanjing festival seeks to grow with foreign and Chinese art

About 20 works from Pablo Picasso, all owned by a Chinese collector, will be shown to the public at the Nanjing International Art Festival in September.

Together with Picasso's works, pieces by other artists including Rodin, Monet, Renoir and Gauguin will also be shown in the section, Works of International Masters, at the art festival.

Nearly 60 pieces in total will be exhibited in this section, part of a private collection of Yan Lugen, who started collecting works of Western masters in the 1990s.
