*A FINE AND RARE WHITE JADE 'DA JI' DOUBLE-GOURD PLAQUEChina, Qing Dynasty, Attributed to Qianlong periodThe flattened section of very even white stone attractively carved around the edges with thin borders of small double gourds on a continuous leafy branch, the top with a pierced loop for suspension, the obverse carved in crisp shallow relief with the auspicious characters “da ji” (大吉), the reverse also “tian xi” (天喜), 'Heavenly bliss',carved in crisp shallow relief with the auspicious characters mounted within a wooden table screen also set with a carnelian plaque.Dimensions:- the plaque: H: 8 cm – w: 5 cm – thick.: 5 mm- the table screen: 22,4 cmWeight (the jade): 50 gramsNotes:1. The inscription “dà jí” means “good fortune” while the inscription “tiān xǐ” means “Heavenly Bliss”.2. The Chinese name for gourd (葫芦 hulu) also contains a homophone for words for protection or guard (护 hu) and also for blessing (祜 hu). The gourd is popular as a charm symbol to ward off evil spirits and disease because its first character (hulu 葫芦) has the same pronunciation as the word to "protect" or "guard" (hu 护) and also the word for "blessing" (hu 祜). In some dialects, the Chinese word for gourd (hulu 葫 芦) sounds the same as fulu (福 禄) which means "happiness and rank (as in attaining a high government office)". Trailing gourd vines are described in Chinese as man (蔓). This character can also be pronounced as wan and has the exact same pronunciation and meaning as 万 which means "10,000".  Because the gourd contains many seeds, the Chinese associate the gourd with "10,000 children".  In ancient China, parents hoped for many sons and grandsons so the gourd became an important symbol for a family with many children.3. A related jade plaque from the Qing Court Collection is illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum: Jadeware (II), Hong Kong, 2008, no.71.

VU CAO DAM 武高谈 (VIETNAM AND FRANCE, 1908-2000)  ECOLE DES BEAUX-ARTS DE L’INDOCHINE (INDOCHINA FINE ARTS COLLEGE), 7TH PROMOTION (1931)  Portrait of a young lady with a blue scarf  Circa 1950  Mixed media on silk laid on cardboard  Signed to the lower right  33 x 23,8 cm  Provenance: From a French Riviera Estate, France, where Vu Cao Dam has been working and living.Notes:  1. Biography: Vu Cao Dam was born in Hanoi in 1908 to a Catholic family of the local bourgeoisie. In 1926, he joined the Fine Arts School of Hanoi (Ecole des Beaux-Arts de l’Indochine), where he studied the art of painting and drawing and from which he graduated in 1931. With the support of his professor, Victor Tardieu (1870-1937), Vu Cao Dam participated in the 1931 edition of Paris International Exhibition following which he settled in France. He was, above all, known for his sculptures, which brought him numerous commissions upon his arrival in Paris. Marked by the Western avant-garde (Fauvism and the Paris School), Vu Cao Dam’s creations lie on the edges of Asian traditions in general, and Vietnamese and Chinese in particular. He was one of the four famous Vietnamese painters who emigrated in Paris, the others being Le Thi Luu (1911-1988), Mai Trung Thu (1906-1981) and Le Pho (1907-2001).  2.

Jamini Prokash GANGOOLY (1876-1953) also known as J.P. GANGULY“Sunset Kanchenjunga”Oil on artist / student board (PREVIOUSLY DESCRIBED AS PANEL)Stamp to the back of the board: "PREPARED STUDENT ACADEMY BOARD WINSOR & NEWTON […] LONDON"Signed to the lower leftTitled and signed to the back22 x 29 cmNotes:1. J. P. Gangooly belonged to the extended Tagore family in Calcutta. Like many of his class of affluent gentlemen artists, Gangooly didn’t go to art school but was a product of private art training at home, initiated later into art by Abanindranath Tagore. Gangooly painted at the time of rise of new nationalist and modernist art movements. The skills he commanded in illusionist oil painting, realist portraiture and landscapes were all part of the essential training that marked the formation of the new professional artist in colonial India. Over the first decades of the 20th century, the artist demonstrated his flair in various genres, ranging from portraiture to neo-classical and mythological paintings. However, landscapes and riverscapes became his chosen genre where he developed his special style of densely mist-laden atmospheric effects of sunrise and sunsets on bathing ghats, river banks and mountain ranges. Gangooly especially surpassed himself in the picturesque views of the Himalayas, and in the village and river scenes of Bengal. He painted nearly a hundred oils of the sun setting on the river Padma, which earned him the sobriquet ‘Painter of Padma’. In 1905, he was elected the joint chairperson of the Bangiya Kala Samsad, Calcutta, and founded the Indian Society of Oriental Art, Calcutta, in 1907. In 1936, he was elected joint director of the Academy of Fine Arts, Calcutta. Gangooly became vice-principal of the Government College of Art & Craft, Calcutta, in 1916, a position he held till his retirement in 1928.2. Kangchenjunga, also spelled Kanchenjunga, is the third highest mountain in the world. It rises with an elevation of 8,586 m (28,169 ft) in a section of the Himalayas called Kangchenjunga Himaldelimited in the west by the Tamur River, in the north by the Lhonak Chu and Jongsang La, and in the east by the Teesta River.
