A closely related box decorated with an elephant bearing a vase but surrounded by just two foreigners was included in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum: Furniture of the Ming and Qing Dynasties (II), Hong Kong, 2002, no.232 rather than five in the present work. Elephants have long been a popular theme at the Qing court and the white elephant has strong Buddhist associations. The Buddha's mother, Queen Maya is said to have been visited by a white elephant following years of not being able to bear a child and Buddha is said to have taken the form of a white elephant for his final incarnation. The presence of the vase (ping 瓶) on the elephant's (xiang 象) head forms a rebus for the phrase taiping youxiang (太平有象), meaning 'Where there is peace, there is an omen (or elephant)'.The inscription on the reverse of the screen is a section of the poem by Du Fu, Stirred By Autumn, no. 8 and may be translated:Even the leftover rice husk on the parrot's beak smells as fragrantThe branch of the jade green Wutong tree provides home to the PhoenixSee a related inlaid brown lacquer table screen, Qing dynasty, in the Qing Court Collection, illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum: Furniture of the Ming and Qing Dynasties (II) , Hong Kong, 2002, p.200, no.174.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: YY Subject to CITES regulations when exporting items outside of the UK, see clause 13.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
