The style of the sitters dress, hair and jewellery would appear to date this painting to the 1650’s during the Interregnum when low cut, off-the-shoulder bodices were the height of fashion and the hair was worn in loose waves to the shoulders on the sides, with the remaining hair gathered at the back of the head. The addition of pearl necklaces and earrings was typical of this period. The depiction of face patches in this painting is quite extraordinary, face patches have been used since ancient times for purely practical purposes to cover up scars and blemishes. However, in the mid 17th century some men were outraged by the way women dressed and wore make up. In 1650 parliament debated whether to pass an act against ‘The vice of painting and wearing black patches, and immodest dress of women’, the bill did not make it to law but had some popular support. The Puritan obsession with sexual promiscuity was also reflected in a crackdown of all forms of ‘nightwalking’ aimed at removing prostitutes from the streets. The implication was that a ‘patched woman’ had something to hide, which may have been as innocent as a birthmark or small-pox scar, but she could also be hiding something much more sinister, perhaps a syphilis scar or other sexually transmitted diseases. The association of patches with sexual immorality, deceit and aristocratic affectation was everything Cromwell and his Puritan government sought to outlaw. http://eighteenthcenturylit.pbworks.com/ provides an interesting insight: ‘A patch is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as “A small piece of black material, typically silk or velvet, cut into a decorative shape and worn on the face, either for adornment or to conceal a blemish”. The art of patching one’s face became popular in the seventeenth century, and continued to be fashionable until late in the eighteenth century. Among women, wearing patches on the face was a part of a larger cosmetic fashion movement characterised by a desire to emulate youth by achieving the “perfect” complexion. The art of patching is said, apocryphally, to aim to emulate the beauty spot of Venus, whose one dark imperfection highlighted the flawlessness of her complexion and thus made her beauty complete (Downing 22 and Fairholt 1:303). Patching was also popular among men, particularly for the “dandy” meaning that the patch was a part of both male and female attire. The response of the seventeenth century Puritans in England to the practice of any use of cosmetics was not favourable; a response which could not fail to include the art of patching. A sermon written by divinity student Andrew Jones titled “Morbius Satanicus, The Devil’s Disease, or The Sin of Pride Condemned and Arraigned” uses Ezekiel 16:49, in which Jerusalem is related to the ancient city of Sodom, to draw a parallel between the unfaithful Israelites of the time of Ezekiel, and the unfaithful state of England at the time. The key to this unfaithfulness, he suggests, is the abundance of pride, which partly manifests itself in the painting and patching of the face. In 1683, another Puritan text, “England’s Vanity, or the Sin of Pride” is printed, a text which again damns the abundance of Pride in England. The author, talking specifically of patches, calls them “the very tokens of death”.While “England’s Vanity” begins as an address to all mankind, it quickly begins to concern itself solely with women, comparing painted and patched women to Jezebel, the infamous whore of Babylon. This speaks of a societal misogyny that fears the ability of women to change their appearance. Perhaps it was because patching and wearing cosmetics gave women the power to present themselves as they wanted, that the Puritans were so critical of the practices. Perhaps it was that the Puritans really believed that if women could improve their appearance, men would not be able to resist themselves from being tempted by them and would fall into sin. In either case, the texts show that the male authors were particularly indignant to the art of patching on women. Patching, then, posed a problem for the Puritans. The idea of changing one’s appearance opposed their theology that God has made everyone as they should be, and therefore that to alter one’s appearance was to tamper with God’s creation. This was blasphemous, as tampering with God’s creation was seen to be, in effect, “playing God”. It would also pose a threat to the patriarchal power structures in the religion if it were true that made up women gained some power over men through the act of hiding something from them. The inflammatory indignation with which the Puritans of the late 17th century responded to the fashion of patching and painting seen in these texts is indicative of their fear of it. There was an attempt to make all cosmetic use illegal as early as June 1650, when parliament ordered “an Act against the Vice of Painting and wearing black Patches and the immodest Dresses of women” to be read. The act did not get far as there is no further record of it in Journals of the House of Commons (Downing 21). Even had the Act passed, it is unlikely that the efforts of the Puritans to halt the art of patching and painting would have got very far; indeed even such damning arguments as have been seen here do little to halt the rise of patching as an everyday fashion.’The depiction of a black woman sat alongside, and not subservient to, her companion, at this date is also an important factor to note, where both sitters are depicted as ‘social equals’ denoted by the style of the dress and jewellery.It would appear that the painting here is a moralistic warning to the viewer, set to highlight the mortal dangers of vanity and pride in 17th century Puritan England. Of course, patches came back in to fashion in England under King Charles II who grew up in France and brought the fashionable phenomenon of ‘patching’ back to England with him where it flourished.PLEASE SEE 'SHIPPING / REMOVALS' SECTION BELOW FOR CONDITION REPORT:

Seltener vierteiliger StellschirmJapan, Muromachi-Periode138,5 x 245 cmLinker Schirm aus einem Paar. Auf jedem Paneel Portrait eines Priesters aus der Gruppe der Acht Patriarchen der Shingon-Schule, von rechts nach links der 5. Patriarch Zenmui, der 6. Patriarch Ichigyô, der 7. Patriarch Keika, und der 8. Patriarch Kobo Daishi. Auf dem Panel Topfsiegel, das zweite Schriftzeichen nobu.Provenienz: Aus einer bedeutenden süddeutschen Privatsammlung, in den frühen 1960'er-Jahren in München erworben, das abgebildete Foto wird in das Jahr 1967 datiertDie Gruppe der Acht Patriarchen der Shingon Schule (Shingon hasso) wurde im 9. Jahrhundert kanonisiert. Während die ersten beiden Patriarchen legendär sind, haben die übrigen sechs als real existierenden Priester den esoterischen Shingon-Buddhismus in Ostasien entscheidend geprägt. Unter ihnen ist Kobo Daishi der einzige japanische Priester.#1#1Die Folge von Patriarchenbildnissen wird bei shingon-buddhistischen Initiationszeremonien zu je vieren an gegenüberliegenden Wänden der Halle aufgehängt. Anstelle von Hängerollen konnten auch zwei Stellschirme à vier Paneele dienen, die den Anwärtern die Traditionsfolge seiner Religion vor Augen führte. Die Bildhaftmachung von Überlieferungslinien von Lehrer zu Schüler wurde im Buddhismus seit jeher praktiziert. Die Achtergruppe Shingon Hasso ist in der Kunstgeschichte erstmalig belegbar in der Wandmalerei der Pagode des Daigoji bei Kyoto aus dem Jahr 952. In der Heian-Zeit ist dann ihre Darstellung kanonisch und ikonographisch festgelegt und wird seitdem mehr oder weniger unverändert fortgeführt. Die bekanntesten Sets dieser Patriarchenportraits befinden sich in japanischem Tempelbesitz oder bedeutenden japanischen Museen. Alle Dargestellten tragen einfache und immer gleiche Mönchsroben. Identifizierende Attribute sind Gebetsschnur, vajra und Handgestus (mudra). Vor der Sitzbank stehen Schuhe und Wasserkanne. Nur der chinesische Mönch Keika wird zusammen mit einem Akolythen wiedergegen. Die obere Gestaltung des Bildfeldes hingegen variiert bezüglich der namentlichen Identifizierung und den biographischen Angaben zu den Priestern. So gibt es Schriftfelder, die sich über die ganze Bildbreite ziehen, ein einzelnes Schriftfeld jeweils rechts, oder in großen Schriftzeichen geschrieben der jeweilige Name. Bei den vorliegenden Bildnissen sind die Schriftfelder frei geblieben. Buddhistische Malerei und auch solche Patriarchenportraits wurden von anonymen Werkstätten meist arbeitsteilig ausgeführt. Diese Bilder sind nicht signiert, höchstens aus einer rückwärtigen Aufschrift könnte ein Datum oder ein Name hervorgehen. Das im vorliegenden Fall ein Siegel angebracht wurde, ist ungewöhnlich. Siegel in Form eines archaischen chinesischen Bronzegefäßes wurden von den Malern der Kano-Schule und Zen-Mönchen ab dem 16. Jahrhundert verwendet. Das Siegel hier ist atypisch, da es nur ein einziges Paar Henkel gibt und diese am Hals angebracht sind und nicht wie üblich am Korpus oder auf dem Gefäßrand aufsitzenKleinere Alterssch. und alte Rest., etwas berieben
