From the Collection of Ebbe Helmuth Adam Berner (1894-1971), Denmark. Ebbe Berner was a Danish interior architect and worked for Danish embassies for many years. As he grew up in a Danish manor, the estate of Holstenshuus, Ebbe Berner also specialized in interior decoration of Manor houses. He was very passionate and inspired by Asian art and made numerous journeys in China from 1920s until 1940s where he acquired a large collection of Chinese art and antiques.
