Also known as
Jin Shaocheng, Jin Cheng, Kungpah T. King, 金紹城
Shaocheng Jin (1878–1926), also cataloged as Jin Shaocheng, Jin Cheng, 金紹城, and Kungpah T. King, was a Chinese painter and calligrapher whose career also included judicial and political service during the transition from the late Qing to the Republic of China. Wikidata and VIAF align his principal identity and life years, while the available Chinese-language biography places his origins in Nanxun, Wuxing, Zhejiang, and records additional courtesy and studio names. These variations matter because works and historical references may be indexed under different romanizations or Chinese character forms. The collected sources do not establish a particular movement, school, signature subject, or documented series, so his practice should not be narrowed beyond painting and calligraphy without further scholarly evidence. Appraisily currently associates 259 directory records with this public artist name, but individual records still require identity matching before they can support reliable comparisons.
PaintingCalligraphy
Common works and media
The collected sources identify Shaocheng Jin as both a painter and calligrapher. Paintings and calligraphic works are therefore the only defensible general work types for this page. The source pack does not establish recurring subjects, formats, materials, editions, documented series, or a particular artistic school, so more specific labels should await museum, scholarly, or lot-level evidence.
Market and appraisal context
The source pack confirms Shaocheng Jin’s identity but does not provide individual auction descriptions, sale dates, realized prices, condition reports, provenance, or edition information. It therefore cannot support artist-specific price trends or rankings among work types. The immediate appraisal issue is identity reconciliation: catalog records may use Jin Shaocheng, Jin Cheng, 金紹城, or Kungpah T. King. Comparable lots should be limited to records that can be tied confidently to the same person and evaluated from their underlying auction-house documentation. The directory record count indicates catalog coverage, but it is not independent evidence of demand, authenticity, or value.
Auction categories and appraisal factors
Value drivers
- Correctly reconcile romanized and Chinese name variants before selecting comparable auction records
Appraisal caveats
- The collected Appraisily page response did not expose lot descriptions, sale dates, realized prices, provenance, condition, or edition details; artist-specific market conclusions therefore remain provisional: https://appraisily.com/artist/shaocheng-jin/
- The directory count is an inventory signal and should not be interpreted by itself as evidence of demand, authenticity, or value: https://appraisily.com/artist/shaocheng-jin/
