A very large and unusual Chinese enamelled silver plated and silver model of a shipBelieved 19th century, modelled as a broad vessel with flat deck, populated by trees with blue enamelled leaves and silk flowers, along with pavilions and structures such to resemble a palatial garden, an obelisk to the stern surmounted by a figure inscribed 故油軍上将程公壁光肖像, possibly translating as 'Portrait of General Cheng Gong', set into a hardwood base, 59cm long x 33cm high, metal weight 120oz (3402g).Provenance: Purchased in Kuala Lumpur in 1970 by the vendor's late husband while working in South East Asia as a representative of Jebsen & Jessen.Footnote: Objects of this sort are uncommon, reserved for wealthy households able to afford a folly of such size. This particular ship is featured in the March/April and May/June 1993 issues of Arts of Asia magazine. By repute, its construction records a fable, or possible history, of an emperor who disliked sea travel and so when called upon to venture to another country, had a vessel made to resemble land as closely as possible. The figure seemingly identified as 'General Cheng Gong' may refer to Chen Gong (d.199), a Han Dynasty warlord who served under Cao Cao and Lu Bu. The story of the ship resembling land may be derived from the practice of chaining ships together to mitigate seasickness in troops during campaigns, a method employed by Cao Cao in the Battle of the Red Cliffs (208-209AD), although this was several years after Chen Gong's execution.IMPORTANT NOTE: This ship is silver plated with silver elements and not entirely silver as originally believed. Generally good having spent its life since 1970 under a purpose made plexiglass cover. Most of the enamel leaves have some enamel losses. Textile flowers are faded and hardened a little. No obvious repairs or restorations. Please refer to images.

STATUE DE VAJRADHARA EN LAITON INCRUSTÉ D'ARGENTTSANG, TIBET CENTRAL, XVE SIÈCLEHimalayan Art Resources item no. 4840 24 cm (9 1/2 in.) high Footnotes:A SILVER-INLAID BRASS FIGURE OF VAJRADHARA TSANG, CENTRAL TIBET, 15TH CENTURY 藏中 十五世紀 銅錯銀金剛總持像 Provenance:With Claude de Marteau, Brussels, by 1970s The primordial Buddha, Vajradhara, crosses a vajra and bell before his chest (vajrahumkara mudra), symbolizing the perfected union of wisdom and compassion that is Buddha-consciousness, and into which the human ego can blissfully evaporate. His sublime body is clad in a lower garment with patterned floral hems, and a scarf that drapes over his shoulders before sweeping around the elbows and falling to his sides. His crown consists of five tall leaves, representing each of the Five Presiding Buddhas. The sculpture is a superior example of the non-gilded, brassy, and frequently inlaid style favored in Tsang province of Central Tibet. This alloy can be brought to a high polish, achieving an attractive buttery patina, as seen on the figure's back. Vajradhara's squarish countenance and accentuated smile are also characteristic of Tsang style. A 15th-century date is supported by the particular rippling of the lower garment around the shins, and the long, densely packed lotus petals around the base, which Tibetan craftsmen adopted from imperial Chinese Buddhist bronzes that were sent to powerful Tsang monasteries by the Yongle emperor (1403-24). Similar Tsang bronzes of Vajradhara are kept in the Johkang, Lhasa; the Rubin Museum of Art, New York (C.2005.37.1); and a private collection (see von Schroeder, Buddhist Sculptures in Tibet, Vol. II, 2001, p. 1193, no. 323B; HAR 90823; and HAR 30586, respectively).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
