Equine Artistry on Fifth Avenue
To mark the Lunar New Year, The Metropolitan Museum of Art opens Celebrating the Year of the Horse on February 7, 2026. This exhibition draws from the museum’s vast holdings of Asian art to explore the symbolism of the horse in Chinese culture—representing speed, power, and noble rank.
For the collector of Asian antiquities, this exhibition provides a scholarly benchmark for valuation. The market for high-quality Chinese porcelain and jade remains robust. Visitors should pay special attention to the Tang Dynasty pottery figures, which often set the standard for private market pricing. We discuss the intersection of art and asset management further in our February 2026 Luxury Agenda.
