GAO QIPEI（1660-1734)Scholars under pine treesInk on paper, hanging scroll, inscribed and signed Gao Qipei, with two seals of the artist. 69cm (27in) long x 46cm (18in) wideFootnotes:Provenance: Dr Walter Rieder (1890-1986)Dr Walter Rieder (1890-1986) served in the Swiss East Asia Mission (SOAM) in Qingdao, Shandong Province, between October 1930 and December 1951. The mission specialised in educational, literary and philanthropic work and Dr Rieder was in fact, not a theologian or missionary, but a teacher of mathematics, physics and science to high school students attached to the SOAM. His guiding principles were 'Creating understanding between different cultures' and 'Building bridges between East and West'. While in Qingdao, Dr Rieder collected a wide variety of Chinese art. The objects in the collection thus offer a unique window into the type of antiques that were on the market in Qingdao in the second quarter of the 20th century. As well as demonstrating his passion for Chinese art, his collection also reveals the personal friendships Dr Rieder forged with local artists, some of whom he knew from his teaching activities. Dr Rieder had a scholarly approach to studying his collection. Alongside many of his objects, meticulous notes can sometimes be found detailing his art historical commentaries. The collection was hence Dr Rieder's gateway to the history and culture of China. Objects from the collection were exhibited at the Kunsthaus in Interlaken, Switzerland in 2006 and 2018.Gao Qipei (1660-1734) was born in Jiangxi to a Manchu family. He had success as a scholar official, but is best known today as a painter most famous for using his fingers instead of a brush.Lot to be sold without reserve.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

Northern Wei dynasty figures of this type were made to represent the ideal beauty of the time, with stylised facial features characterised by a pronounced narrow and elongated head, with small, neat linear facial features all frequently surmounted by a high crown, further emphasising the linearity of the sculpture. The result is an ethereal quality, representing the purest form of the ideal of Buddhist spiritual enlightenment. Many of the comparable sculptures originate from the Longmen cave complex; compare with two seated figures of bodhisattvas, both from Longmen, illustrated by O.Siren, Chinese Sculptures in the von der Heydt Collection, Zurich, 1959, pls.11-12.See a related limestone relief fragmentary head of a bodhisattva, Northern Wei dynasty, which was sold at Sotheby's New York, 12 September 2018, lot 7.北魏 石雕菩薩首來源：巴黎 Robert Rousset（1901-1981）舊藏，於1935年前入藏，首像見於 Robert Rousset 巴黎府邸一舊照中，攝於上世紀五十年代閒巴黎 Jean-Pierre Rousset（1936-2021）舊藏For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
