STATUETTE DE KAPALADHARA HEVAJRA EN ALLIAGE DE CUIVRE DORÉDYNASTIE MING, XVE SIÈCLEHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4610 28 cm (11 in.) highFootnotes:A GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF KAPALADHARA HEVAJRAMING DYNASTY, 15TH CENTURY 明 十五世紀 銅鎏金喜金剛像 Published:Arman Neven, Le tantrisme dans l'art et la pensee, 1974, p. 76, no. 390.Exhibited:Le tantrisme dans l'art et la pensee, Palais de Beaux-Arts, Bruxelles, 7 March - 10 April 1974.Provenance:With Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1970sBelonging to the highest class of Tantra in Tibetan Buddhism, this sixteen-armed form of Hevajra known as Kapaladhara Hevajra holds in each of his hands a skull cup with eight animals representing the Eight Diseases on one side, and eight Buddha-like deities representing the corresponding cures on the other. He holds his consort Nairatmya in his principal pair of arms, while she flings her right leg around his waist as they embrace one another in a cosmic, synchronous dance. Apart from bestowing good health and fortune to practitioners, these meditational deities (yidams) quash ignorance, here manifested as four Hindu deities, two of which kneel behind the supreme couple. This powerfully rendered gilt bronze follows in the early Ming dynasty's imperial sponsorship of Tibetan Buddhism. Arguably the most generous Buddhist art patron among the Ming rulers was the Yongle emperor (1403-24), who sought to reestablish the priest-disciple relationship introduced by the Mongol khans of the Yuan dynasty, and in so doing, legitimize his rule as their spiritual heir. Part of this initiative involved the creation of small, portable bronzes in a codified yet accomplished Tibeto-Chinese style, which were either received by visiting religious envoys or sent to Tibetan monasteries as diplomatic gifts. On the other hand, the practice of exchanging images between Tibet and China was lessened considerably under the Xuande emperor (1426-1435), as the fewer number of bronzes produced during his reign were largely intended as objects of worship in Chinese temples. The lack of an imperial reign mark notwithstanding, the following work retains much of the sculptural qualities associated with Ming bronzes from the 15th century. For instance, the slightly thinner features within the entire composition bear slight resemblance to two Xuande-marked gilt bronzes, including one Manjushri published in Uhlig, On the Path to Enlightenment, 1995, p. 122, no. 72, and an esoteric form of Tara sold at Sotheby's, Hong Kong, 2 October 2017, lot 3124. Furthermore, while the divine couple's elongated proportions, imposing weight, and denser jewelry reflect the desire for bolder figures in the Xuande period, the brilliant gilding, unevenly sized tripartite swags, and compact arrangement of the lotus petals with trifurcating tips reveals the artist's reliance on Yongle archetypes. (For example, compare the pedestals and flaring, tripartite swags depicted on a Yongle Vajrabhairava and Hevajra, sold at Sotheby's, Hong Kong, 7 October 2006, lots 812 & 814.) This juxtaposition suggests that the present lot is likely from the Xuande period or soon after, as subsequent periods all but abandon the narrow petal design in favor of a wider type with foliated tips. Compare the present lot's crown type to a Ming dynasty Yama published in Beguin, Dieux du Tibet, 2018, p. 133, together with a 15th-century gilt bronze Hevajra with closely related proportions and lotus base, sold at Sotheby's, London, 11 May 2016, lot 65.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Lot 26
STATUETTE D'UN LAMA EN LAITON INCRUSTÉ D'ARGENTTIBET, XVIE SIÈCLEHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4613 17 cm (6 3/4 in.) highFootnotes:A SILVER INLAID BRASS ALLOY FIGURE OF A LAMATIBET, 16TH CENTURY西藏 十六世紀 銅錯銀喇嘛像ProvenanceWith Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1970sLikely representing either Sachen Kunga Nyingpo or Jetsun Dragpa Gyaltsen from the Sakya Order of Tibetan Buddhism, the style and execution bear similarity to other portraits of this tradition from the 15th/16th century. As often depicted in portraits of Sakya Masters, the lama is flanked by the manuscript and sword, alluding to his attained wisdom and association with the bodhisattva Manjushri. He holds the implements of the vajra and ghanta in the position linked to the purification deity Vajrasattva, signifying his accomplished role as a tantric master. The monastic garment with an engraved hem and cord tied around the ribcage are common features of this portrait type. Rarely featured in other portrayals, however, is a vertical pleating of the robe that is shared with a portrait of Sachen Kunga Nyinpo sold at Bonhams, New York, 14 March, 2017, lot 3259. The tall base with abstracted square lotus leaves appears as a unique stylistic element in several bronzes of this kind as seen in a portrait of Lowo Kenchen Sonam Lhundrup also sold at Bonhams, New York, 14 March 2017, lot 3277.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Lot 42
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

STATUETTE DE TARA VERTE EN ALLIAGE DE CUIVRE DORÉKHASA MALLA, XIVE SIÈCLEHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4612 18.8 cm (7 3/8 in.) highFootnotes:A GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF GREEN TARAKHASA MALLA, 14TH CENTURY卡薩馬拉 十四世紀 銅鎏金綠度母像 Provenance:With Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1970s Her eyes and lips accentuated with the application of cold gold, red, and white pigments, Green Tara casts a warm and empathic smile toward the viewer. The lotus and blue lily blossoming over her shoulders reflect her pure nature as the mother of all Buddhas. Likewise, as the female bodhisattva of compassion, she waits attentively with one hand outstretched in the gesture of wish-granting and one leg pendant, ready to rise to the aid of her devotees. The delineation of the joints of Tara's fingers, in addition to the application of red lacquer to the flattened back of her lotus base, are stylistic features associated with the Khasa Mallas, a Buddhist kingdom in Western Tibet and Nepal whose artists produced paintings and sculptures infused with the styles of neighboring artistic centers (see Alsop, 'The Metal Sculpture of the Khasa Malla Kingdom', in Singer & Denwood (eds.), Tibetan Art: Towards a Definition of Style, 1997, pp. 68-79). For instance, the present figure's hooked nose and rounded jawline bear a strong similarity to two images: a gilt bronze of Green Tara sold at Bonhams, Hong Kong, 2 October 2018, lot 154; and a portrait of a Khasa Malla Queen, now in the National Museum of Asian Art, Washington, D.C. (F1986.23).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
