A PALE CELADON FIGURE OF A BOY WITH A HOBBY HORSE, 18TH CENTURY 十八世紀青白玉騎馬上任童子珮Please note this Lot is to be sold at No Reserve. 本拍品不設底價China. Carved as a striding boy holding the reins of the hobby horse with one hand, the other holding a leafy lotus stem. The translucent stone of a pale celadon color with faint russet patches and veins, and cloudy white inclusions.Provenance: From the collection of the late Michael Sherrard CBE, QC, acquired before 2000 and thence by descent. Michael Sherrard (1928-2012) was an English barrister in fraud and company law who was considered one of the great recent influences on the legal profession. He was involved in numerous high-profile cases in both English and East Asian courts, particularly Hong Kong and Singapore. Together with Linda Goldman, he wrote a memoir titled “Wigs and Wherefores: A Biography of Michael Sherrard QC”. Sherrard was an enthusiastic collector of Chinese art, especially jade carvings.Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, minuscule nibbling to the base, the lotus flower with a small chip. The stone with natural imperfections and fissures, some of which may have developed into small hairline cracks over time.Weight: 74.0 g Dimensions: Height 65 cmExquisitely modeled in the round to depict a boy astride a hobby horse, the reins of which he lovingly clutches whilst slinging stems of lotus over his shoulder, this carving captures the playful ease and charm of the subject. Images of boys playing with a hobby horse form part of the popular 'boys at play' and 'Hundred Boys' subjects that emerged during the Song dynasty. This theme is symbolic of the Confucian ideal for the education and advancement of many sons, a wish further emphasized by the lotus he carries which is a homophone of 'continuous' and creates the rebus 'May you continuously give birth to sons'. As the boy is depicted riding a hobby horse, this conveys the further wish for it to come quickly as 'to be on top of a horse' means 'immediately'.Literature comparison:Compare a related carved jade figure of a boy, but holding a rattle instead of a lotus stem, in the collection of the Museum of East Asian Art, Bath, collection number BATEA 1218. Compare also a related jade figure of a boy holding a lantern on a pole, in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, accession number 2015.500.5.14.Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Sotheby’s Hong Kong, 30 November 2016, lot 158Price: HKD 525,500 or approx.

A MONUMENTAL GILT FAMILLE ROSE ‘LADIES OF THE HAN PALACE’ VASE, LATE QIANLONG - EARLY JIAQING 乾隆末期至嘉慶朝初年粉彩描金《漢宮春曉》瓶Please note this Lot is to be sold at No Reserve. 本拍品不設底價China, 1780-1820. The baluster sides rising from a short spreading foot to a waisted neck flanked by a pair of imitation-cloisonné chilong-form handles to flared mouth. The body vibrantly painted in bright enamels with gilt highlights to depict a lively scene of elegantly dressed ladies on a palace terrace indulging in leisurely pursuits, set against a monumental landscape with gnarled pines, towering mountains, and swirling clouds. Each side with a central dancer surrounded by musicians playing string, flute, and percussion instruments, with further ladies holding lanterns and jade chimes, carrying scrolls and auspicious fruits, or simply looking on.Provenance: Mme Safia Sassi, Paris, France. Formerly in a noted French private collection, by repute acquired from the above. A private collector in Austria, acquired from the above via the London trade.Condition: Natural wear, mostly to gilt. Expected manufacturing irregularities, including a circumferential firing crack around the foot. Minuscule chips and shallow surface scratches. One handle with a small section re-attached. Displaying exceptionally well!Weight: 12,812 kgDimensions: Height 64.5 cm The scenes painted to the body are framed by lime-green and pink-ground bands of ruyi-heads dotted with floral designs. The shoulder with a band of floral scroll below plantain leaves enclosing stylized flowerheads. The neck painted to each side with a bat above a stylized shou character and linked cash-coins suspended from a beaded tassel, surrounded by lotus blossoms borne on leafy scrolling vines, all against a lime-green ground. The mouth with a turquoise-ground band of ruyi-heads below the gilt rim.The foot with a band of key-fret below lotus scroll. The interior glazed turquoise, while the base is left unglazed, revealing the white ware, which has a remarkably unctuous, silky feel overall.This fine and meticulously painted depiction of ladies is reminiscent of a scroll painting, with the colorful decorations around the mouth, neck, and foot serving as the mounting. The scene depicts ladies of the Han Palace, a subject that rose in popularity in the mid-Qing dynasty when the Han dynasty became a subject of nostalgia. Elegant and beautifully dressed women occupy a romanticized world, engaged in exemplary behavior such as modesty and encouraging the transmission of culture as seen on this vase where they play music and dance. This theme also reflects the antiquarian interest characteristic of the Qing period.Literature comparison: Compare a Qianlong-marked lantern vase from the Qing court collection, now in the National Palace Museum, Taipei, similarly painted with ladies playing music surrounding a central dancer in an elaborate robe, no. Gu Ci 007371. It is suggested that the figures are modeled after the ladies in the painting Court Version of ‘Spring Dawn in the Han Palace’, completed by Sun Hu, Zhou Kun, and Ding Guanpeng in the 6th year of the Qianlong period (1741), included in the exhibition The All Complete Qianlong: The Aesthetic Tastes of the Qing Emperor Gaozong, National Palace Museum, Taipei, 2013, cat. no.

McClellan’51 x 76 cm, 20 x 30 inEx collection Alec Walker, then Polly WalkerExhibited Artists of the Newlyn School 1880 – 1900, Newlyn Orion Gallery, City Art Gallery, Plymouth and Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, 1979, catalogue no 62Model Citizens, Penlee House Art Gallery, Penzance, 2014LiteratureIllustrated The Shining Sands, Tom Cross, Lutterworth Press, 1994, p139 in reverse imageIllustrated The Golden Dream, Pam Lomax, Sansom & Company, 2004, p164Collector's Note"Deidre (Patsy) McClellan, the daughter of Phyllis Gotch, was born in 1915; author and Gotch archivist Pam Lomax believes that The Lantern Parade was painted before 1910 and therefore McClellan couldn’t have been in the procession. Gotch was fascinated by light in darkness and explored this in several paintings with Chinese lanterns culminating in The Russian Tea Party of 1910." This oil is in excellent conserved condition. Overpainting is minimal and restricted mostly to the extreme right margin. Our catalogue speaks of the verso inscription being in pencil, although indistinct it is thought more likely that the writing is in ink.
