See Chojnacki, S., 'Notes on Art in Ethiopia in the 16th Century: an Enquiry into the Unknown Author(s)' in: Journal of Ethiopian Studies, Vol. 9, No. 2 (July 1971), pp. 21-97. 426 grams, 21 x 21.5 cm (8 1/4 x 8 1/2 in.). Ex Alistair McAlpine collection, 2004.Ex central London gallery.According to Leroy, one of the first scholars who extensively studied Ethiopian paintings, the development in Ethiopian art from the middle of the 16th century to the middle of the 18th century followed only one style which emerged as the Gondarene style, named after the capital of the Ethiopian Kingdom, Gondar. Saint George is spearing the dragon with a cross-spear, of which 17th century originals are still visible in the Lalibela Museum. The anatomy of the horse recalls 17th century style, but the horse trappings with the second collar and the high cantle of the saddle are already visible in 15th century icons. [No Reserve]

(2)The interest in collecting European clocks at the Chinese court began in the late Ming dynasty when the Jesuit missionary Matteo Ricci (1552-1610), in an effort to reach the capital, presented the Wanli emperor in 1601 with a watch, and a chiming clock that sounded the half- and quarter-hours. Ricci used this clock as a means of gaining access to the highest reaches of Chinese society.Mechanical clocks were among the most prized tributary gifts given to Chinese courtiers and ultimately to emperors of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. The interest in Western clocks reached its peak under the rule of Kangxi who was fascinated with Western science, technology, and elaborate clockwork. Jesuit missionaries like Matteo Rippa (1682-1746) were impressed with the vastness of Kangxi’s collection, which reached more than 4,000 clocks.The notoriety of clocks as foreign tribute slowly declined after the establishment of the first imperial clockmaking factory in 1732 by the Yongzheng emperor. There is a notable absence of clocks as tribute in the monumental painting ‘Ten Thousand Nations Coming to Pay Tribute’, created during the Qianlong’s reign in 1761. The emperor Qianlong, however, continued to amass what came to be the largest collection of watches and clocks during his reign; he commissioned many of these clocks from the imperial palace workshops in Guangzhou. According to a conservator at the Palace Museum, Beijing, there are “Nearly 1,600 timepieces in the collection of The Palace Museum – all hailing from the Qing dynasty." 1680-1720年刺繡《外朝人物進貢鐘錶》殘片呈長方形，用絲線和金線刺繡，分別描繪了兩位來自波斯和蒙古的外國使者，周圍有假山、竹子、蓮花和一棵樹。使者身著外朝長袍，手持大珊瑚枝和座鐘，鐘上飾有精美的纏枝蓮花、如意等紋飾。細節精美。來源：英國古玩交易，購自據説建立於1920年的私人收藏。 品相：品相良好，有磨損、線頭鬆動、輕微污漬、褪色、小撕裂和明顯缺損。 尺寸：畫面58.5 x 43.7 厘米，總66 x 51 厘米 玻璃面裝框。(2)

A ‘QIANJIANG CAI’ ENAMELED ‘LUSH FORESTS AND HIGH BAMBOO’ PLAQUE, BY JIN PINQING (1862-1908) 金品卿(1862-1908) 淺絳彩《茂林脩竹》瓷板Please note this Lot is to be sold at No Reserve. 本拍品不設底價Expert’s note: Qianjiang cai or 'pastel palette' enamels reflected the late Qing potter's increasing inability to produce the more technically demanding vibrant colors of the earlier High Qing or the later Republic period. To borrow a modern aphorism however, the determined late Qing artisans turned this 'bug' into a 'feature' – notably the dreamlike faintness of these colors became popular with the melancholy intelligentsia of the time and led to masterworks by the best, with Cheng Men (1833-1908) and Jin Pinqing (1862-1908), the painter of the present lot, being the most renowned.The rectangular plaque painted in orange, green, and blue tones with thinly applied enamels depicting a forest landscape with hills and mountains, bamboo groves and pine trees in the foreground. Two scholars sit conversing in a field while a third approaches them on foot, two houses with a tranquil river running beside it which disappears into the mountains. The plaque with a lengthy dedication written by Wang Fengchi (1824-1898), a scholar and official who was friends with Jin Pinqing and often collaborated with him on porcelain paintings.Inscriptions: Top center, titled ‘Lush Forests and High Bamboo’, signed ‘written by Jin Pinqing’, two seals. Top left, inscribed ‘Some time ago in the Yijin Studio in the capital, I saw an ink painting by the master Wang Jian from Taicang with a lush forest. The landscape was quite unique. The [present] painting was painted for me by Pinqing in the style of porcelain paintings from Zhushan. The paintings complement each other. The ink style is so gentle and mild like a breath of air. The [original] painting was done in the Spring of the Year of Dingchou [corresponding to 1877] in the third year of the Guangxu era. I am very touched, thus I wrote this dedication.

(2)Qianjiang is a term used to describe a type of over-glaze enameled ware that was very popular during the Late Qing/Early Republican Period. The term Qianjiang cai (enamels) or Qianjiang porcelain was only coined in the 1950s. Prior to that, annals or commentaries in the late Qing and Republican periods did not classify it as a new distinctive type of over-glaze enamel decorative technique on porcelain. The term was initially used to describe a distinct style of landscape painting by the Yuan master Huang Gongwang. It is typified by the use of a particular color scheme: varying ink tones for outlines and reddish-brown for other aspects such as foliage, flowing water, mountain shades etc. The term was subsequently used to describe a porcelain painting style that used similar techniques but with additional colors such as aquamarine, moss green, pale blue, red and light pink.Auction result comparison: Type: RelatedAuction: Christie’s London, 16 May 2014, lot 1254Price: GBP 18,750 or approx.

Gao Jianfu learned painting with Ju Lian (1828-1904) in his early years before he went to Japan, where he was influenced by the Nihonga movement that synthesized Western realism—natural light and luminous colors—with Eastern materials, techniques, and subject matter. This new hybrid art included the use of perspective, and other elements of Western painting. Jianfu once wrote: ‘I think we should not only take in elements of Western painting. If there are good points in Indian painting, Egyptian painting, Persian painting, or masterpieces of other countries, we should embrace all of them too, as nourishment for Chinese painting.’ While in Japan and after his return, he was involved in Sun Yat-sen’s revolutionary movement. After Sun Yat-sen passed away, Gao Jianfu devoted himself to the modernization of Chinese painting and art education.Auction result comparison: Type: Closely relatedAuction: Shanghai Chongyuan Arts Auction Co.

This book contains the biographies and imagined portraits of 40 notable heroes and heroines from the Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, all accompanied by a brief introduction and guided by a related poem in Yuefu style. The illustrations from the book were widely distributed and re-used, often as motifs on Chinese porcelain.Di Renjie (630-700), formally Duke Wenhui of Liang, was a Chinese politician of the Tang and Wu Zhou dynasties, twice serving as chancellor during the reign of Wu Zetian. He was one of the most celebrated officials of Wu Zetian's reign and was thus included in Wu Shuang Pu. He is depicted on this lot wearing polychrome robes with floral medallions.Fu Sheng (268-178 BC) was a Chinese philosopher and writer. He was a Confucian scholar of the Qin and Western Han dynasties of ancient China, famous for saving the Confucian classic Shangshu (‘Book of Documents’) from the book burning of the first Qin emperor. Fu Sheng is recognized as one of the most important Confucians of the Han Dynasty. He is often venerated in Confucian temples along with other sages, and has been a subject of many poems, essays, and paintings. He is depicted on this lot seated on a rock ledge and above him are his emblematic books.Wu Zetian (624-705) was the first and only female emperor in Chinese history. She subsequently founded and ruled the Wu Zhou dynasty of China from 690 to 705. She was the only female sovereign in the history of China widely regarded as legitimate. Under her 40-year reign, China grew larger, becoming one of the great powers of the world, its culture and economy revitalized, and corruption in the court reduced. She was removed from power in a coup and died a few months later. She is depicted on this lot wearing her imperial robes, and above her is Mount Song where her rule was legitimized during the Feng Shan.Sun Ce (175-200) was a Chinese military general, politician, and warlord who lived during the late Eastern Han dynasty of China. He was the eldest child of Sun Jian, who had found the Heirloom Seal of the Realm when his forces occupied the evacuated Han imperial capital of Luoyang, in the course of the campaign against Dong Zhuo, and later suffered a violent death during the Battle of Xiangyang when Sun Ce was only 16. Upon his father’s death, Sun Ce inherited the seal and gave it to Yuan Shu so that he might lend him troops to take revenge for his uncle, who had been fighting Warlord Lu Kang. The young Sun Quan is depicted on this lot wearing heavy armor with a sheathed sword, holding a large axe, with the Heirloom Seal of the Realm painted above.Auction result comparison: Type: Closely related Auction: Bonhams Edinburgh, 24 November 2011, lot 432 Price: GBP 3,125 or approx.

The Jiangxi Porcelain Company (or Jiangxi Ciye Gongsi) is the most well-known Chinese porcelain studio of the first half of the 20th century, located in Jingdezhen. It was established in 1910 as a large semi-government company funded by private owners and the five provinces of Hebei, Hubei, Jiangsu, Anhui, and Jiangxi. It is located near the Zhushan – the Pearl Hill – adjacent to the former Imperial porcelain workshops. It is often said that the Jiangxi Porcelain Company of the early 20th century replaced the Imperial kilns, making porcelains for the court in the last years of the Qing Dynasty.Qianjiang is a term used to describe a type of over-glaze enameled ware that was very popular during the late Qing dynasty and early Republican period. The term Qianjiang cai (enamels) or Qianjiang porcelain was only coined in the 1950s. Prior to that, annals or commentaries in the late Qing and Republican periods did not classify it as a new distinctive type of over-glaze enamel decorative technique on porcelain. The term was initially used to describe a distinct style of landscape painting by the Yuan master Huang Gongwang.

The relationship between qianjiang and fencai painting has caused quite a bit of confusion. In terms of the decorating medium, qianjiang utilizes fencai enamels. The main difference is actually the source of inspiration for the painting because the Qianjiang school draws its inspiration from the Chinese literati style, whereas the typical fencai work is more akin to gongbi painting. For fencai painting, the areas within the outlines of the motif are first applied with an arsenic-based opaque white pigment. The deeper and lighter tones are then obtained by mixing the enamels with different amounts of this opaque substance. For Qianjiang, the enamels are applied directly without the opaque white pigment. Hence, the enamels are thin and lack tonal gradations, especially on the early qianjiang works. 清末民初漢口贛新瓷業公司淺絳彩人物場景花口筆洗中國，約1910-1949年。花口淺筆洗，平底。洗中淺絳彩描繪松下站著一位文人，拄著手杖，一男童提著一籃子花。底座隱約可辨一個“壽”字。 款識：漢口贛新瓷業公司 來源：比利時古玩交易。 品相：狀況極好，有輕微磨損、使用痕跡、燒製缺陷，底座有輕微劃痕。 重量：436.5 克 尺寸：寬29 厘米

The reverse is similarly carved with a fisherman beneath a single cloud, hauling in a carp.Provenance: Collection of Bernard Wald. Robert Kleiner & Co. Ltd., London, United Kingdom, 2006. A private collection in the United Kingdom, acquired from the above. The base with an old collector’s label, ‘RR 853 29.’ A copy of the invoice from Belfont Company Ltd., dated 7 September 2006, describing the present lot as a chalcedony snuff bottle, confirming the dating above, and stating a purchase price for the present lot of GBP 5,500 or approx. EUR 12,500 (converted and adjusted for inflation at the time of writing), accompanies this lot. Although little is known of the collector Bernie Wald, his collection of Chinese snuff bottles was quite prominent. He was an associate of noted experts such as Robert Kleiner, Robert Hall, and Hugh Moss, and bottles from his extensive collection, which he built together with his wife Francine, continue to appear at auction houses including Christie’s and Sotheby’s. The couple also wrote articles for the International Chinese Snuff Bottle Society. Robert Kleiner (1948-2014) was an important expert of Chinese snuff bottles, beginning his long career at Sotheby’s in London. Along with Hugh Moss and Bob Hall, he became a key advisor to the Mary and George Bloch collection, and it was Robert who wrote and produced the very first catalog of their bottles.Condition: Excellent condition with only minor old wear and a microscopic nick to the lip.Stopper: CoralWeight: 72.9 gDimensions: Height 73 mm, Diameter neck 20 mm and mouth 7mm According to folklore, Zhong Kui took part in the state-wide imperial examinations held in the capital city. Though he attained great academic success and top honors in the state exams, his rightful title of ‘Zhuangyuan’ (top-scorer) was stripped of him by the Emperor because of his disfigured and ugly appearance. In anger and fury, Zhong Kui committed suicide by hurling himself against the palace gates until his head was broken, whereupon Du Ping, his friend, had him laid to rest. During the divine judgment after his death from suicide, Yanluo Wang (the Chinese Underworld Judge) saw much potential in Zhong Kui, intelligent and smart enough to score top honors in the Imperial examinations but condemned to the capital of hell because of the strong grievance. Yama thus gave him the title of the King of Ghosts and tasked him to hunt, capture, take charge of and maintain discipline and order among demons and ghosts.

Of cylindrical form, molded and carved in high relief with the famous beauty seated by the shore under a gnarled willow tree with a basket of fruit beside her. She is washing a neatly incised yarn coiled around a stick in the river. The yarn strikingly mirrors the incisions of her coiffed hair and ribs of the tree trunk. Covered overall in a deep amber glaze. Provenance: English trade. Condition: A small loss to the rockwork with associated repairs, otherwise in good condition with old wear, expected firing irregularities, and traces of use. Some glaze flaking and minuscule nicks. Weight: 1,062 g Dimensions: Height 13.8 cm, Diameter 12.5 cm Xi Shi ('Shi of the West') was, according to legends, one of the renowned Four Beauties in Ancient China. It is said that even fish felt stunned and sank away from the surface of the water when seeing her washing yarn at the side of the river, as depicted in the present lot, which serves as the meaning behind the first two characters of the Chinese idiom ‘chenyu luoyan, biyue xiuhua’ (’fish dive, goose fall; moon hide, flower shame’). This saying is used to compliment a woman's beauty, meaning one is so beautiful she sinks fish and entices birds to fall, eclipses the moon and shames flowers. Xi Shi was said to have lived during the end of the Spring and Autumn period in Zhuji, the capital of the ancient State of Yue. She was discovered by the Yue minister Fan Li and given to King Fuchai of Wu by King Goujian of Yue in a sexpionage operation which successfully brought down the State of Wu in 473 BC.Auction result comparison: Type: Related Auction: Christie’s New York, 22 March 2012, lot 1257 Price: USD 25,000 or approx.

AN INSCRIBED HALF OF A BRONZE TIGER TALLY, EASTERN HAN DYNASTY 東漢半片銅虎符Please note this Lot is to be sold at No Reserve. 本拍品不設底價Expert’s note: According to Ch'i-kuo k'ao, pp. 366-67 (Chapter 12, ‘The Penal Law of Wei’), “He who steals a tiger tally will be executed and his house and property confiscated.” The fact that only one half remains of this tiger tally, however, indicates that someone indeed once risked their life to snag this highly important object which could decide the fates of entire wars, possibly to disrupt the enemy’s chain of command.China, 25-220 AD. Cast in the form of a recumbent tiger with the mouth open, inscribed along the curvature of its neck and down its back, a single aperture for suspension in its twisting tail. The dynamic posture of the tiger, as if it were ready to pounce on its enemy, shows swirling indentations from casting, symbolizing its muscular legs.Inscription: To the tiger’s neck and back, ‘Si Gong […]’, likely referring to a government office.Provenance: A private collection in Vienna, Austria. Galerie Zacke, Vienna, before 1998. Collection of Maria and Johannes Nickl, acquired from the above and thence by descent in the same family. A copy of the original invoice from Galerie Zacke, addressed to the Nickls, dating the present lot to the Warring States period, and stating a purchase price for the present lot of ATS 14,500 (or approx. EUR 1,900 converted and adjusted for inflation at the time of writing), accompanies this lot. Maria (1926-2022) and Johannes Nickl (d. 2020) lived in Vienna, Austria, and were ardent collectors of Asian, Buddhist, and Egyptian works of art. They were highly active in Vienna’s tightknit Asian art trade and assembled most of their collection during the 1980s and 1990s, frequently buying from Galerie Zacke and later Galerie Asboth. The couple were also noted museum patrons and their names are still found on the Ehrentafel (‘Roll of Honor’) of the Egyptian and Near Eastern Collection at the Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien (Museum of Fine Arts Vienna) today.Condition: Good condition. As expected, typical wear and weathering commensurate with age, encrustations, nicks, scratches, minor casting flaws. Fine, dark, smooth, and naturally grown patina with malachite encrustations.Weight: 126 gDimensions: Length 9.4 cm The tally played a significant role in ancient warfare. The Historical Records by Sima Qian document a story that the state of Qin besieged Handan, the capital of the state of Zhao, in 257 BC, and Zhao requested aid from the neighboring state of Wei. The King of Wei asked the senior general Jin Bi to lead 100,000 soldiers to save Zhao. However, Jin was afraid of Qin's power and halted the offensive. Lord Xinling, son of the King of Wei, was determined to save Zhao and requested that Lady Ru, the king's concubine, steal the tiger-shaped tally from the king's bedroom. She succeeded. Seeing the tally, the soldiers obeyed orders and finally rescued Zhao.Auction result comparison: Type: Closely related Auction: Sotheby’s New York, 22 March 2022, lot 49 Price: USD 50,400 or approx.

Set of three oil paintings on canvas, measurements with frame: 90 x 37 cm. Rein de Lege began his studies at the Rijks-academie Amsterdam, School of Art (1971-1975). He followed the classical education of drawing and painting with special attention to drawing from models. In 1977, he moved to the Minerva Academy in Groningen (1977-1980) where he continued his studies. In addition to drawing and painting, he focuses on graphic arts: engraving and lithography. After visiting Barcelona on vacation in 1978, Rein de Lege is so fascinated by life on the streets and bars of "Chinatown" (in reality, this area is not inhabited by an Asian population...). visits throughout the years when he decided to settle permanently in the capital of Catalonia (1988) where he continues to live there to this day. The drawings of the bustling old town have always been very inspiring and are still echoed in his current works.

IMPORTANT MILITARY C.B.E. AWARD AND MINIATURE MEDAL GROUP, VICE-ADMIRAL KENNETH G.B. DEWAR, OF ROYAL OAK MUTINY INTEREST the C.B.E. with original neck ribbon, in original fitted Garrard & Co. box with gilt tooled cover inscribed C.B.E. MILY, the miniature group comprising the C.B.E., The China War Medal (1900), The 1914-15 Star, The War Medal, and The Victory Medal, also with bar for relevant full size medals (these not present), also with further relevant information including newspaper cuttings, copies of records, details regarding Dewar, H.M.S. Dreadnought, and H.M.S. MagnificentNote: Vice-Admiral Kenneth Dewar, C.B.E. (21st September 1879 – 8th September 1964), was an officer of the Royal Navy. First specialising as a gunnery officer, he became a staff officer and ‘controversial student of naval tactics’, going on to see extensive service during WWI.This included the Dardanelles Campaign, where he commanded a monitor in home waters before serving the Admiralty for over four years. After the war, he became entangled in the controversy surrounding the consequences of the Battle of Jutland, though despite this, held a number of commands during the 20s.In 1928, he was at the very heart of the infamous ‘Royal Oak Mutiny’, when as a captain of the battleship Royal Oak, he sent his executive officer’s letter of complaint to higher command, this regarding their immediate superior, Rear-Admiral Collard. This came after a series of incidents onboard.All three were ordered back to Britain, with Dewar and his EO requesting courts-martial so that they could defend themselves. Their trials were held in Gibraltar and attracted widespread media.Dewar, though found partly guilty, survived with severe reprimand. His EO was found guilty and resigned, whilst Collard was compelled to resign his commission for provocation.Having then commanded the two oldest capital ships in the fleet, Dewar retired on promotion to Rear-Admiral. His 1939 memoirs were a strong indictment of the Navy’s practices.Dewar was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire on 17th October 1919 ‘for valuable services at the Peace Conference, Paris’, the award forming part of this most important groups.
