The Evaristo Caretti collection to lead Fine Chinese Art sale during London Asia Week

The Evaristo Caretti Collection was born of an extraordinary life and a changing China. Caretti’s first encounter with China was as part of the Italian navy when he was dispatched there in 1901. From then on he built a career with the Chinese Post Office and developed a lifelong passion for collecting Chinese works of art. The collection will lead the Fine Chinese Art sale at Bonhams London on 5 November.
