Saliba Douaihy (Lebanon, 1915-1994)Abstract Composition oil on canvas, framedsigned 'Saliba Douaihy', further signed and dated '1981' on the verso, numbered I, the verso bearing the Brigitte Shehadeh gallery stamp, executed in 198170 x 50cm (27 9/16 x 19 11/16in).Footnotes:Provenance:Property from a private collection, LebanonFormerly with Galerie Brigitte Shehadeh, ParisExhibited:Galerie Brigitte Shehadeh, Saliba Douaihy, Paris, 1981Bonhams are proud to be offering a superlative work from one of the leading Lebanese 20th Century artists Saliba Douaihy. Born in northern Lebanon within the small town of Ehden, Douaihy was seen as having a talent for the arts from an early age, which led to him being heavily encouraged to develop his craft. Douaihy's work transformed throughout his life, from early works following classical landscape paintings seen in Lebanese church pieces, to later works such as 'Abstract Composition' following ideas and themes from American Abstract expressionism and Formalism. His body of work involves radical changes and refined artistic instinct. 'Abstract Composition' from the series 'Hard Edge' is a rich minimalist work. Only four colours are found in the composition, Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green. Each colour is applied to the canvas in precise lines as geometric shapes. A leaf green segment sits above all other colours, engulfing the work. It leads the viewers eye to the outer edges of the work. Two rich segments of red and a single yellow shape act as barriers to either side of the green plane. A precise blue segment darts through the left-hand side cutting the outer red away from the yellow. The application of the paint within the simplistic composition can allude to a lack of perspective in some works. Here it does the opposite. Douaihy uses colour theory and precise geometric shapes to create the feeling of depth and dimension. Douaihy was awarded a grant from the Lebanese government to study abroad. He studied in New York and was introduced to the energetic and modern art scene. This was an integral part to his future themes and his 'Hard edge' series of abstract, minimalist paintings. Rothko and Hans Hoffman were important acquaintances as they were masters of colour theory, knowing how to extract depth from colour with very simplistic compositions. Douaihy became attuned to the ideas of formalism from his readings on Immanuel Kant. This inspired many parts of this work. These influences led to this dedication of hard-edged shapes depicted as flat surfaces. Douaihy's stance encapsulates the ideas and values that influenced all later pieces by him. The painting demonstrates his mastery of the minimalist aesthetic as well as the two fundamental aspects in formalist painting: colour and shape.'Abstract Composition' is truly a compositional masterpiece. Douaihy emphasises the compositional elements along with the purest idea of colour theory that creates the spectacular depth within this work. The work epitomises why he is a true pioneer of Arab Modernism.Douaihy participated in many exhibitions including the Salon Des Artistes Francais, Paris (1934); the New York fair; the Guggenheim Museum; the Salons des Realites Nouvelle, Paris; the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and University Art Gallery, New York. Douaihy won many prizes and awards. They included the Lebanses National Ord of the cedar (1956), the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts Award (1968) and the Medaglia d'Oro of the Accademia d'Itlia dello Arte e del Lavoro (1980).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

Hon. Lord Cunliffe〉,《Apollo》,倫敦,1957年3月,圖版編號III倫敦古董商Bluett & Sons,《Oriental Art》,II,倫敦,1991年,編號18The present lot has several distinguishing features that make it remarkable and attest to the skill and taste of both jade carvers and patrons in the Yuan dynasty. Firstly, it is carved from a particularly large piece of jade. Secondly, its monumental scale is further enhanced by the simplicity and complete absence of any decoration, which leaves the surface of the stone to speak for itself. Thirdly, despite the simplicity of form, the greatest care has been taken to carve internally the tubular handles and to finish the accurately shaped interior of the vessel and the area within the foot ring. The natural markings are such as to have appealed especially to scholarly taste. Indeed, such jades spoke eloquently of the subtle taste to let nature speak for itself, and that it was merely the job of the craftsmen to enhance nature's work. Scholarly taste is further encapsulated by the shape of the vase, which is modelled after archaic bronzes. Admiration for antiques and archaic bronzes was especially strong during the Southern Song period, and bronze vessels were produced as early as the 12th/13th century and into the Yuan period. See for example two archaistic bronzes, Yuan dynasty, illustrated in The World of Khubilai Khan: Chinese Art in the Yuan Dynasty, New York, 2010, pp.18-19. See also an archaistic bronze vase with tubular handles, Yuan dynasty, of similar form to the present lot, illustrated in ibid., p.290, where it is noted that vessels with tubular 'ears' on the sides are a reference to the ancient game of touhu, a darts-like game but played by throwing arrows into the vase or ears. Compare a related jade vessel of this form, one with similar tubular handles, Yuan dynasty, illustrated in Zhongguo meishu quanji, vol.9, Beijing, 1986, nos.270. See also a jade vase of similar form but with ring handles, Song/Yuan dynasty, in the Qing Court Collection, illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum: Jadeware (II), Hong Kong, 1995, pp.140-141, no.114.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
