Lot 36
A Chinese archaic bronze flask-shaped ritual wine vessel, Hu, Eastern Zhou dynasty, 5th-4th century B.C., cast in low relief with five bands of coiled interlocking dragons, surmounted by a bird-shaped cover linked by a two section chain to the curved handle, on a rope-twist foot, olive-brown patina with large patches of malachite encrustation, 36.5cm high, hole to base and loss to coverLiterature:A very similar bronze hu in the British Museum, London, accession no. 1973,0726.26 appears in Rawson, J, Chinese Bronzes: Art and Ritual, London/Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts of East Anglia / Burrell Collection, Glasgow, BMP, 1987. Jessica Rawson describes this as 'A tall slender flask, circular in cross-section, this hu is sharply bent to one side, seemingly in imitation of a leather bottle. Three narrow registers are packed with tiny s-shaped dragons; such decoration is typical of the sixth century but probably persisted into the fifth century BC. A bird-shaped lid, with an articulated beak, is attached by a chain to a bowed handle.'See also Zhixin Jason Sun, Ancient Chinese Bronzes in the Collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Orientations, March 2015 in which a similar assymetric hu vessel with bird-shaped cover is illustrated. The author states:An earlier hu, much more like a leather bottle, with a full body and tightly angled neck, was discovered in a tomb in Hubei Sui Xian Bajialou. It carried deeply curved chevrons. Later examples are decorated with a wide variety of motifs in several different techniques. During the Eastern Zhou ceramic, leather and lacquer shapes were rendered in bronze as bronze-casting spread geographically and as the use of bronze was extended from ritual to secular items'.
