STATUETTE D'USHNISHAVIJAYA EN ALLIAGE DE CUIVRE DORÉTIBET CENTRAL, XVE/XVIE SIÈCLEHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4601 23.8 cm (9 3/8 in.) highFootnotes:A GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF USHNISHAVIJAYACENTRAL TIBET, 15TH/16TH CENTURY藏中 十五/十六世紀 銅鎏金尊勝佛母像Provenance:With Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1970sUshnishavijaya, whose name translates as 'the Victorious Crown Ornament', is a peaceful deity who bestows long life. Depicted with three distinctive faces and eight arms, the deity is crowned, jeweled and ornamented seated atop a double lotus throne. Each implement and gesture signify the giving of boons. The primary right hand holds the visvavajra, the symbol of indestructability. The second right hand holds an effigy of the Buddha Amitabha, whose name means 'Infinite Light', and whose emanation is Amitayus, represented by the vase containing the elixir of long life held in Ushnishavijaya's fourth left hand. The third arm at right holds an arrow signifying wisdom with the bow mirrored in the second left hand symbolizing compassion. The lower right hand is held in varada mudra and the third left arm is raised in abhaya mudra expressing gestures of generosity and assurance respectively. The multi-faced, many armed deity offers enduring protection and favorable rebirth to those who have devoted faith. Adhering to a 15th-century style, Ushnishavijaya shows a syncretic blend of Indo-Nepalese, Central Asian, and Chinese artistic traditions. While these stylistic exchanges were occurring earlier during the Yuan dynasty, their integration matured in the 15th century with a distinctive Tibetan style at its art historical peak. Political and economic support for these artistic developments partly came from the Early Ming emperors' patronage with Tibetan monasteries. The sending and receiving of gifts between the Early Ming court and Tibetan lamas which included texts, commentaries, silks and Buddhist imagery inspired a process of elaboration and refinement in Tibetan art, yielding casts like this delicate gilded sculpture of Ushnishavijaya. The qualities that harken back to earlier influences from India and Nepal include the lithe proportions of the body, the foliate triangular leaf crown, and the cabochon of turquoise and inlaid stones with heavy gilding which was popular in Nepalese artistic traditions. Skilled Nepalese metalworkers coming from the Kathmandu Valley had long been involved in workshops relating to specific monasteries throughout Tibet. These stylistic choices, especially in consideration of the overall layout of ornamentation can be compared to another Ushnishavijaya in the Rubin Museum of Art (C2005.16.22). While the garments and ornamentation are predominantly of Indian and Nepalese style, the modeled face, with its demure expression, is more definitively Chinese and can closely be compared to another tantric deity of Ratnasambhava in this sale (see lot 21) along with a Vairocana Buddha on Himalayan Art Resources (HAR 15711).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

TANGKA REPRÉSENTANT KURUKULLADYNASTIE QING, STYLE DE YONGHEGONG, XVIIIE SIÈCLEHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4651 Image: 57 x 42 cm (22 1/2 x 16 1/2 in.)Footnotes:A THANGKA OF KURUKULLAQING DYNASTY, YONGHEGONG STYLE, 18TH CENTURY清 雍和宮風格 十八世紀 智行佛母唐卡Provenance:With Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1970sThe goddess Kurukulla belongs to a set known as the, 'mar chen kor sum' or the Three Great Red Deities, including Takkiraja from the Guhyasamaja Tantra and Maharakta Ganapati from the Chakrasamvara Tantra (see a thangka of Maharakta from the Claude de Marteau Collection, Part 1, sold at Bonhams, Paris, 14 June 2022, lot 57). Dancing atop a pale white corpse, the crimson goddess draws a bow and arrow composed of flowers, symbolic of her power to bewitch the hearts of kings and men through the recitation of her mantras.Floating above the upper recesses of the painting are two monks wearing yellow hats, associating this work with the Gelugpa order and other 18th-century examples from the Yonghegong monastery. Located in Beijing, this lamasery was formerly the monastic residence of Prince Yinzhen prior to his enthronement as the Yongzheng emperor (1723-35) as well as the birthplace of the Qianlong emperor (1736-95). Stylistically, the dense, hilly landscape with earthen-hued clouds bear a striking resemblance to a Chakrasamvara painting in the Yonghegong Collection (HAR 100116) and two other examples published in, Bai Ming (ed.), Beautiful Tangka Paintings in Yonghegong vol.1, 2002, pp. 36 & 81. Also compare a series of paintings commissioned by the Qianlong emperor between 1779 and 1780 for the Xumifushou Temple with similar color schemes to the present lot, published in Singer & Denwood (eds.), Tibetan Art: Towards a Definition of Style, 1997, pp. 110 & 115, nos. 91, 99 & 100.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

NORTH ITALIAN SCHOOL (18TH CENTURY)APOLLO AND A NYMPH TRANSFIXED BY AN ARROW; AND APOLLO AND THE CUMAEAN SIBYLOil on canvas, a pair66 x 166cm (25 x 65¼ in.) (2) Provenance:Probably the Messel family collection at NymansIn the Main Hall at Holmstead Manor and thence by descent to Oliver MesselPurchased from Oliver Messel by Frederick and Phyllis Watkins for Flaxley AbbeyCatalogue Note:In his famous Metamorphoses, Ovid tells the tale of the Sibyl of Cumae, in southern Italy, who was loved by the god Apollo. He bribed her by offering to prolong her life for as many years as there were grains in a heap of dust, in return for her love. She refused him and although he kept his word, he denied her perpetual youth, so she was commanded to centuries as a wizened crone. In the painting the Sibyl is shown as a young woman before Apollo, holding out her cupped hand which contains the heap of dust. The other painting shows Apollo standing grief stricken by his lover Coronis, a Greek princess, who was with child by him but left him for another. In a fit of jealous rage he slew her with an arrow and tore the child from her womb. This child was Asclepius, who would grow up to become the god of Medicine. Condition Report: Both canvases have been relined. Surface dirt and a yellowed varnish. Both canvases are composed of three or four smaller pieces of canvas, which is clearly visible. UV shows scattered retouching in both works, including retouching of old craquelure. Condition Report Disclaimer
