Proveniens

From the Collection of Henrik Lennart Blomstedt (1921-2009). Henrik Blomstedt was a Finnish diplomat who was stationed in Beijing between 1951 and 1954 as II class Secretary of Finnish Embassy. The painting was purchased in 1953 in Beijing according to familys recollection, thence by descent.

Övrig information

Finland was one of the very first Western countries to recognize the People’s Republic of China, opening up the first Finnish Embassy in 1952, with Helge von Knorring as the first resident Ambassador to China and Henrik Blomstedt as his assistant, and thereafter as a II class Secretary of Embassy in Beijing 1952-54. In one image, Henrik Blomstedt is shown (from the left) with Chairman Mao Zedong and Premier Zhou Enlai, with others.
