Ca. 618–907. Tang Dynasty. A beautifully modelled terracotta male attendant standing on a flat base. The figure is shown with head turned in a responsive gesture; one hand is at his chest with a finger pointing to his left whilst the other arm lies along the body, the hand within the long red sleeve decorated with white flowers. A long light-blue tunic tied a the waist by a dark belt is worn over light blue pantaloons. Pointed shoes complete the attire. He has a finely modelled face with rosy cheeks and traces of red paint on the lips, whilst his cloth cap is black and fastened underneath the chin. In China, the custom of producing ceramic tomb sculptures reached its pinnacle during the Tang dynasty, one of the most peaceful, prosperous, cosmopolitan eras in China’s history. The Tang capital of Chang’an (present-day Xi’an, Shaanxi province) attracted numerous foreign traders, pilgrims, and goods, as the famed overland trade route known as the Silk Road terminated in this city. Large sets of ceramic sculptures representing the horses, camels, and foreign merchants that frequented northern China have been recovered from burials. Tang ceramic funerary retinues were especially elaborate, featuring fierce armoured guards, proud court attendants such as this item, and aristocratic equestrians engaged in leisurely pursuits—all serving to demonstrate the high status of the tomb occupant. For more general information on the Tang Dynasty, see Benn, C. (2002). Daily Life in Traditional China: The Tang Dynasty. Westport: Greenwood Press and Watt, J. C. Y., et al. (2004). China: Dawn of a Golden Age, 200–750 A.D. Exhibition catalogue. New York: Metropolitan Museum of Art. This piece has been precisely dated by means of a Thermo Luminescence analysis carried out by Ralf Kotalla, an independent German Laboratory. The samples collected date the piece to the period reflected in its style, whilst also showing no modern trace elements. The TL certificate with its full report will accompany this lot. Provenance: UK private collection; formerly acquired in the early 1990s in Hong Kong. Size: L:510mm / W:180mm ; 2.8kg

Lot 60

Ca. 3000–2000 BC. Indus Valley Civilisation. Beautiful set of three terracotta jars. The smallest one is standing on a ring foot. The interior is decorated with black painted running ibexes, surrounded by geometric motifs and concentric black lines. The one on the left is decorated with stylised felines, a tree, geometric motifs and concentric black lines. The largest one is also decorated with stylised felines, trees, geometric motifs and concentric black lines. The Indus civilization, also called the Harappan civilization, is the earliest known urban culture of the Indian subcontinent and was an important Bronze Age culture that arose around ca. 3300 BC and lasted until ca. 1300 BC. It extended from modern-day northeast Afghanistan to Pakistan and northwest India. The nuclear dates of the civilization appear to be about 2500–1700 BC, though the southern sites may have lasted later into the 2nd millennium BC. Large numbers of ceramic vessels decorated with black slip have been found among the sophisticated urban settlements of South Asia's protohistoric Indus Valley civilization. The walls of this jar are so thin that it must have been created on a potter's wheel. Perhaps the best-known artefacts of the Indus civilization are a number of small seals, generally made of steatite depicting a wide variety of animals, both real—such as elephants, tigers, rhinoceros, and antelopes—and fantastic creatures. Sometimes human forms are included. A few examples of Indus stone sculpture have also been found, usually small and representing humans or gods. There is a fair number of small terra-cotta bowls decorated with figures of animals like the present item. To find out more about the Indus civilisation and its material culture, see Possehl, Gregory L., 2002. The Indus Civilization: a Contemporary Perspective. Walnut Creek, CA: AltaMira Press.

Lot 59

Ca. 386–534 AD. Northern Wei Dynasty. A rectangular ceramic brick featuring a seated Buddha with a plump face, elegantly curved almond-shaped eyes beneath sharply defined and arched brows, a well-formed nose and full lips recessed into fleshy cheeks, drooping ears, the hair and ushnisha (the knot of hair on the top of the head) carved with curls. The modelling of the facial features is articulated with vivid realism, the serene expression of the Buddha endowed with the uttermost spirituality. The leaf-shaped halo behind Buddha is painted in a deep blue hue, which matches the long flowing garment of the Buddha, completed by a red upper garment. The Buddha's right hand is in the abhaya mudra, i.e. upright with the palm facing outward, all fingers are pointing up towards the heavens. In Buddhism and Hinduism, this specific 'mudra' (“seal,” “mark,” or “gesture”) symbolises wisdom, calmness, and fearlessness. His left hand, with the palm facing outwards and fingers pointing down, is in the 'varada mudra' (favourable mudra), which indicates, charity, compassion and sincerity. The Wei dynasty was the longest-lived and most powerful of the northern Chinese dynasties that existed before the reunification of China under the Sui (581– 618 AD) and Tang (618–907 AD) dynasties. The Wei rulers were great patrons of Buddhism. They fostered Buddhism as a state religion, although the dynasty took particular care to control the religious hierarchy, trying to avoid any church-state conflicts. Provenance: Property of a North London gentleman; previously acquire on the UK/European art market in the 1980s. Size: L:330mm / W:170mm ; 4.4kg

Lot 386

Ca. 860–650 BC. Urartian. A heavy bronze bracelet with a D-shaped section and terminals shaped as two opposing ram's heads with curved horns. Urartu was an ancient kingdom of southwest Asia centred in the mountainous region southeast of the Black Sea and southwest of the Caspian Sea. Mentioned in Assyrian sources from the early 13th century BC, Urartu enjoyed considerable political power in the Middle East in the 9th and 8th centuries BC. From early in the kingdom’s history, very characteristic artefacts were manufactured, including bronze belts along with shields, quivers, helmets, bells, jewellery, and ceramic and metal vessels of many forms. Many of these artefacts bear royal inscriptions and are decorated with characteristic motifs and scenes, which consist of various deities and composite otherworldly creatures, royal rituals, hunts, battles, and genre scenes. Urartu continued to produce beautiful works of art until it was destroyed in the second half of the seventh century BC by the Medes or the Scythians. To find out more about Urartu and its art production, see Merhav, R. (1991). Urartu: A Metalworking Center in the First Millennium B.C.E. Jerusalem: Israel Museum.

Ca. 3rd Century B.C. Hellenistic. An ancient Hellenistic black-glazed ceramic jar with everted rim, a rounded bulbous body and pedestal base. A circular rim with incised ring decorating the top. Traces of patination evident on the neck and rim. Ancient Greek pottery, due to its durability, is one of the most found forms of antiquity found in ancient Greece. There are over 100,000 painted vases recorded in the Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum. Pottery is still our best guide to understanding the customary life and mind of the ancient Greeks. There are many forms of pottery made for utilitarian use, ie for use in cooking and bathing, but there were finer pottery styles form in other regions such as Attica (Athens), with beautiful red-figure designs portraying different scenes such as important mythological or historical events, ceremonial scenes such as weddings and funerals and even scenes from the Trojan war with Achilles.

Lot 11

Ca. 618–907 AD. Chinese Tang Dynasty. This elegant court lady stands on a flat base. Her hands are held close to her body and they support a small brown dog, which rests on her chest. Her red, light blue and cream-coloured long robes fall in heavy folds that emphasize the graceful sway of her body. Her head is turned slightly to the side and the face is sensitively modelled with full rosy cheeks, a small mouth and elongated eyes, and is framed by the stiff wings of her coiffure which is drawn up and then divided into two soft loops. This stately, elegant figure exemplifies the ideal standards of beauty and fashion that prevailed during the high Tang period of the 8th century in China. During this period, a more voluptuous body type had become fashionable, which was reflected in women's robes being long and loose-fitting, and their hair was worn in fuller hairstyles that framed the face. Other painted pottery figures representing this type of court lady are illustrated in The Quest for Eternity – Chinese Ceramic Sculpture from the People's Republic of China, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, 1987, pp. 139-40, nos. 83-84, and col. pl., p. 56. Several paintings on silk, from Turfan, of women that are similar in type to the present figure, depict them with pink cheeks, to indicate the use of rouge, which is seen on the full cheeks of the present figure – see The Ancient Art in Xinjiang, China, 1994, pp. 86-7, pls. 210, 213 and 215. The hairdo of the present figure is very similar to that of a court lady of similar type painted on a Tang dynasty (784) mural at Wangjiafen, Xian, illustrated by P. Karetsky in Court Art of the Tang, Maryland, 1996, p. 274. For another similar figure sold at Christie's, see https://www.christies.com/en/lot/lot-5776675.
