A FAN-SHAPED PAINTING ALBUM WITH 101 DIFFERENT INSECTS, FIRST HALF OF 20TH CENTURYPlease note this Lot is to be sold at No Reserve. 本拍品不設底價China. The bound book comprising twelve bi-fold panels showing approximately 101 insects naturalistically and neatly painted in ink and color on paper.Provenance: From a New York private collection. Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, some foxing, minimal soiling.Dimensions: Size 32.8 x 19.8 cmExpert’s note: The present lot probably served either as a painting manual, used by a student to practice, or as a workshop book, allowing a pupil to complete a work by his master as instructed. The absence of a signature or title – or any inscription as a matter of fact – indicates that this book was never intended to be sold. The quality and particularly the subject matter firmly place it in the circle of Qi Baishi (1863-1957), who taught himself how to paint using the famous Manual of the Mustard Seed Garden and often painted insects in his works. Many of his insects are, at the least, very similar to the ones found in the present book (see Figs. 1-3).

The translucent stone of a pale yellow color with areas of russet and cloudy white inclusions.Provenance: London, United Kingdom trade.Condition: Excellent condition with minor wear and minuscule nibbling.Weight: 45.5 g Dimensions: Length 4.9 cmThe four arts (siyi), or the four essential arts of the Chinese scholar, were the four main academic and artistic talents required of the aristocratic ancient Chinese scholar-gentleman. They were the mastery of the qin (the guqin, a stringed instrument), weiqi (the strategy game of Go), shu (Chinese calligraphy) and hua (Chinese painting).Every scholar in Imperial China was expected to play the seven-stringed zither or qin. The board game of weiqi was considered equally a pastime and an art form. Chinese calligraphy was highly regarded as an expression of the practitioner's poetic nature and a significant test of manual dexterity. It comprises a minimalist set of rules which facilitates a system of complexity and grandeur. Finally, every scholar was expected to learn the art of brush painting, which was regarded as the greatest expression of individual creativity, through which one could demonstrate his mastery over the art of line.Auction result comparison:Type: RelatedAuction: Sotheby’s Hong Kong, 30 November 2017, lot 717Price: HKD 100,000 or approx.
