Box; China, late 19th century.Silver.With French import marks.Inscription on the baseMeasurements: 8 x 14 x 8.5 cm.Weight: 665 grams.The art of silversmithing experienced an important boom in China at the end of the Qing dynasty. In cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, numerous silversmiths' guilds were established, specialising in refined pieces that were in great demand both in the local market and abroad, especially from Europe. In terms of decoration, the artists often used Chinese elements, as is the case with the dragons on the exquisite box shown here, but often under the influence of the Art Nouveau prevailing in the West at the time. Special mention should be made of the meticulous decoration on all sides of this box, which features an interesting high relief, achieved by means of embossing and chiselling techniques, virtuously executed by what was undoubtedly a master silversmith of the highest level. The gilt lettering on the lid, which in Chinese means 'Congratulations', and the inscription below seem to indicate that this precious object was commissioned as a birthday gift for a lady of good family. Other items of Chinese silverware from the same period can be found in the Victoria and Albet Museum (see Inv. No. 11- 1980).

* KYS (FRENCH b. 1949),SEATED NUDE oil on canvas overall size 135cm x 111cm Unframed.Provenance: Acquired by the vendor from REDSEA Gallery, Block 9 Dempsey Road, #01-10 Dempsey Hill, Singapore 247697 in 2010/11. Ms Anita Saraswathy (Gallery Manager, REDSEA Gallery) has recently confirmed the current gallery price for a Kys work of this size is SG$9000 (approximately £5030). Note: "Kys" was born in 1949. His quest of the spiritual world of Asia began 30 years ago when he left France to travel through India, Nepal, Thailand and Japan. With an impeccable photo-realistic painting technique and a mastery of light and shade, Kys depicts the particular quality of each Jayavarman (King of Cambodia) or nude image. Using acrylic paint, gold or silver leaf and other secret ingredients; in his Jayavarman paintings he depicts the ancient patina of stone statues, worn by thousands of years of monsoon rains. Kys says “When I paint, I pray with my brush.” Modestly, he sees himself as merely a channel between the model and the viewer. Kys will paint his subject from a figurehead (his nudes from live model). Several layers of acrylic paint are used on the canvas. His subject is then painted on these layers enhancing the texture, tones and depth by using gold and silver leaf. His technique produces an incredible three-dimensional image, almost as if it was a hologram. The text he uses are single words, stamped on, written in ancient Khmer, Thai, Chinese, Japanese and other Asian languages. Their meanings are simple; Happiness, love, health, kindness, warmth and other words that collectively do not make a single sentence but bring the understanding and feeling of peace and harmony to the viewer.
