Sir Michael's maternal grandparents were Sir Robert Grenville Harvey, 2nd Baronet (1856-1931) and Lady Emily Blanche Harvey (1872-1935) of Langley Park, Buckinghamshire. The Chinese art collection can be, at least in part, traced back to Langley Park, Buckinghamshire, home to the Harvey Baronets from 1788 until 1945.Sir Michael Oppenheimer's paternal family was the well-known South African mining family. The baronetcy was created in 1921 for Bernard Oppenheimer, Chairman of the South African Diamond Corporation for setting up diamond sorting factories to employ wounded ex-servicemen after the First World War. The family has been involved with De Beers over many decades. Lady Oppenheimer DD (1926-2022) was a distinguished moral and philosophical theologian, with a particular interest in the ethics pertaining to personal relationships.The practice of painting on glass and the flat glass itself were both introduced to China between the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Although the glass workshop were established in 1696 in the Forbidden City, no flat glass was produced and when attempts were made, it was reported that the manufacturers did not know how to manufacture it with the adequate materials; see B.de la Martinière, China, its Costume, Art Etc, London, 1813, vol.1. However, the large European mirrors which visiting European dignitaries presented to the Kangxi emperor in 1686, proved to be a revelation to the Chinese. The practice of painting on mirrors developed in China after 1715, following the arrival of Giuseppe Castiglione in Beijing. He found favour with the Yongzheng and Qianlong emperors and was entrusted with the decoration of the Imperial Garden in Beijing. He learnt to paint in oil on glass, a technique that was unknown in China previously. Chinese artists, who were already well versed in painting and calligraphy, took up the practice by tracing the outlines of their designs on the back of the mirror plate and, using a special steel implement, scraping away the mirror backing to reveal the glass that could then be painted. Common designs included still lives, birds and groups of figures, usually depicted against backgrounds of rivers or pavilions.Many reverse mirror paintings were exported to Europe, following the increased interest in Chinoiserie style, which found the highest expression in the homes of wealthy aristocrats, such as Saltram House in Devon, owned by Lord Boringdon, and Shugborough Hall, lived in by the Earl of Lichfield; see T.Audric, Chinese Reverse Glass Painting 1720-1820, Berlin, 2020, pp.162-163.Compare with a related pair of reverse mirror paintings, third quarter of the 18th century, with similar gilt wood frames as the present examples, which was sold at Christie's New York, 20 March 2019, lot 820.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A HUANGHUALI INCENSE STAND, XIANGJI17th/18th century or laterThe stand with a square panelled top fitted with 'ice-plate' edge above a narrow waist above cabriole legs terminating in square feet with trefoil designs carved in high relief, decorated with carved and inlaid mother of pearl designs, the top edges with sequences of wispy clouds, the waist with flowering lotus issuing acanthus leaves, the apron with pairs of confronted chilong enclosing lotus blossoms within ruyi borders, the legs with further chilong interspersed with ruyi clouds, the wood of an attractive blondish hue. 89cm (35in) high x 51cm (19 3/4in) length x 51cm (19 3/4in) deep. Footnotes:十七/十八世紀或以後 黃花梨有束腰嵌螺鈿龍紋香几The present lot appears to be rare in its combination of elegant freestanding cabriole legs and the use of both carved and elaborate mother-of-pearl-inlaid decoration.Known as xiangji, incense stands count amongst the rarest types of furniture originating during the Ming dynasty. They were made square, rectangular, octagonal, lobed or even circular. Their function was for displaying a rock sculpture, a fragrant bonsai (miniature plant), a flower vase or an incense burner, as recorded by Gao Lian in 'Eight Discourses on the Art of Living' Zunsheng Ba Jian, compiled in 1591. Incense and other aromatics have been burned in Chinese culture since the Han dynasty and were used for both, secular and religious purposes. Incense burners were not only used to burn incense as they could hold a variety of aromatic substances that slowly released their scent. Censers and their stands would be placed in Imperial offices, private residences but could also be placed in places of worship or used outdoors, as shown in woodblock illustrations of the Ming dynasty. Incense stands were thus a standard piece within Chinese furniture for any individual who could afford luxury goods; see Wang Shixiang, Connoisseurship of Chinese Furniture: Ming and Early Qing Dynasties, Hong Kong, 1990, vol.1, pp.52-54, for further discussion on the use and shape of incense stands.Compare with a related huanghuali incense stand, 17th century, also displaying freestanding cabriole legs, late Ming/early Qing dynasty, which was sold at Christie's Hong Kong, 3 December 2021, lot 3031.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TP YTP For auctions held in Scotland: Lots will be moved to an offsite storage location (Constantine, Constantine House, North Caldeen Road, Coatbridge ML5 4EF, Scotland, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

His grandfather was a stone carver, his father a local painter. Lin learned both trades during his childhood and in 1919 travelled to France for six years to study and work at Dijon Art College and the Ecole Nationale Superieure de Beaux-Arts in Paris. In France, Lin studied European painting, especially works by Matisse, Picasso, and Modigliani. In 1923 he travelled widely in Germany. In 1979, he settled in Hong Kong, where he lived out his life. Lin's work integrated the Impressionists' technique of working with outdoor lighting with ink and wash and successfully blended Western principles of composition with figure sketches using Chinese colour and ink. See Three Thousand Years of Chinese Painting, New Haven, 1997, pp.323-324.In the middle of the 1950s, the new Communist Chinese government encouraged artists to serve the people and depict scenes of common people at work. Along with artists from the Shanghai Artists Association, Lin Fengmian travelled several times to the fishing grounds at Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province. Since then, Lin Fengmian created a series of paintings portraying the life and work of fishing villages. See Art 60 Years in China 1949-1979, Shijiazhuang, 2009, pp.72-73.Compare with a related painting of fishing by Lin Fengmian, illustrated in The Collected Works of Lin Fengmian, Tianjin, 1994, plate 182.Compare also with a related painting of a fishing village by Lin Fengmian, which was sold at Christie's Hong Kong, 26 November 2016, lot 2512.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A RARE HUANGHUALI FLAT-TOP RECESSED-LEG TABLE, PINGTOU'AN17th centuryThe long single-panel top set within a wide frame with 'ice-plate' edge, supported on robust recessed legs of round section joined by a plain apron and rounded rectangular spandrels, the sides with double oval-section stretchers joining the front and back legs, the precious wood of warm honey tone throughout. 171cm (67 1/2in) long x 83cm (32 6/8in) high x 53cm (20 1/8in) deep.Footnotes:十七世紀 黃花梨平頭案Provenance: an important European private collection, and thence by descent來源：歐洲重要私人收藏，並由後人保存迄今The simple yet elegant form of the present table is one of the most successful and recognisable designs of classical Chinese furniture, one that best epitomises a Chinese scholar's fondness for unassuming and functional furniture.The particularly fine grain and the rich honey-colour tone of the huanghuali timber, and the elegantly-finished surfaces of the present lot, show that it would have been made for a high-rank official or scholar.The basic proportions were adaptable to make large and smaller tables, benches and stools. This iconic Ming design is referred to in the 'Classic of Lu Ban' Lu Ban Jing, a carpentry manual dating to the early Ming dynasty, as a 'Character One Table' due to its similarity in profile to the single horizontal stroke of the Chinese character for the number one; see C.Clunas, Chinese Furniture, London, 1988, p.47.Incorporating a single-panel top of lustrous huanghuali, which would have been precious even during the 17th century, the present table is an example of the narrow version of this particular form. It would have been used in domestic as well as religious contexts and would most likely have been placed against a wall to display ornamental objects or support ceremonial offerings. For a further discussion regarding the importance of Chinese side tables and altar tables, see S.Handler, Austere Luminosity of Chinese Classical Furniture, Berkeley, 2001, pp.224-238. For a similar huanghuali recessed-leg table, 17th century, see Wang Shixiang, Connoisseurship of Chinese Furniture, Hong Kong, 1990, vol.2, p.96, no.B81. See also a huanghuali painting table, 17th century, in the Victoria and Albert Museum, illustrated by C.Clunas, Chinese Furniture, London, 1988, p.46.
