Famed painter and scholar Dong Qichang's landscape, titled Thatched Cottage amid Sparse Forest, will go under the hammer at China Guardian Auctions' autumn sales on Nov 15.
The piece is from a private collector and was listed in the Shiqu Baoji, a collection of imperial artworks of China.
Some of the other items from the same collection have been displayed at Beijing's Palace Museum since September, reigniting people's interest in classical Chinese painting.
