Di Liuce. Qianlong juan er), Beijing, 2005, p.127.This delicately-carved jade group depicts 'The Four Scholarly Accomplishments', siyi: the four main academic and artistic accomplishments required of the aristocratic Chinese scholar-gentleman, which comprised playing the seven-stringed zither, qin, the strategy game of qi, writing calligraphy or shu, and painting or hua.The seven-stringed zither or qin was an instrument which every scholar in Imperial China was expected to play. The board game of weiqi was considered equally a pastime and an art form. Chinese calligraphy equally comprises a minimalist set of rules which facilitate a system of complexity and grandeur. Calligraphy was highly regarded as an expression of the practitioner's poetic nature and a significant test of manual dexterity. Finally, every scholar was expected to learn the art of brush painting, which was regarded as the greatest expression of individual creativity, through which a Chinese scholar would demonstrate his mastery over the art of line.Compare with a related white jade 'Four Scholarly Accomplishments' paperweight, 18th century, of slightly larger size, but without the qian trigram, which was sold at Sotheby's Hong Kong, 8 October 2010, lot 2196; and another pale green jade carving, 18th century, worked with a similar motif, which was sold at Christie's London, 8 November 2011, lot 172.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

PESNE, ANTOINE1683 Paris - 1757 BerlinTitel: Portrait der Louise Albertine Freifrau von Grappendorf (1729-1753) als Flora. Technik: Öl auf Leinwand. Montierung: Doubliert. Maße: 146 x 112cm. Rahmen/Sockel: Rahmen. Literatur:E. Berckenhagen et al.: Antoine Pesne, Berlin 1958, S. 140, Nr. 136a mit Abb.Provenienz:Kunstsammlung Schloß Demerthin, Brandenburg, seit 1. H. 19. Jh.;1945 ausgelagert nach Schönefeld:im Rahmen der Bodenreform Überführung in das Volkseigentum der DDR;Märkisches Museum, Berlin, seit 1948;1992 an die Familie der Einlieferer restituiert, seitdem weiterhin als Leihgabe ausgestellt im Märkischen Museum."Schönste Seele im hübschesten Leibe" - so beschreiben Zeitgenossen Louise Albertine von Grappendorf, geb. von Brandt, und alle stürzen in tiefe Trauer, als sie mit nur 24 Jahren am 28.11.1753 auf einer Reise nach Schwedt plötzlich verstirbt.Oberjägermeister Wilhelm Hilmar von Grappendorf hat Louise Albertine zu seiner zweiten Gemahlin gewählt. Mit ihrer Jugend und Schönheit bringt sie als Hofdame in der ersten Hälfte des 18. Jahrhunderts Glanz und Anmut an den Hof der Prinzessin Luise Amalie von Preußen und der Königinmutter Sophie Dorothea, der Mutter von Friedrich II. Wahrscheinlich stammt aus dieser Zeit der Auftrag an den preußischen Hofmaler Antoine Pesne, Freifrau von Grappendorf zu malen.Antoine Pesne entscheidet sich dafür die hübsche, junge Frau als Göttin der Blumen und Jugend abzubilden. Er steht damit in der Tradition berühmter Künstler wie Rembrandt oder Tizian, welche die Göttin Flora ebenso als junges Mädchen inmitten ihrer Blüten zeigt.Allerdings wählt der Künstler eine gleichermaßen göttliche wie andeutungsweise leicht frivole Darstellung der jungen Dame als Flora. Er setzt sie als Dreiviertel-Figur federleicht auf Wolken und kleidet sie in ein kostbares, spitzenbesetztes, blaues Atlas-Gewand, welches - umrahmt von einer diagonal geführten Blumenschärpe - ihre linke Brust am üppigen Dekolleté herausblitzen lässt. Ihr Blick im strahlend-schönen Gesicht fixiert den Betrachter freundlich, beinahe verschwörerisch; dazu lächelt sie so anmutig, dass sich kleine Grübchen auf ihren Wangen bilden.Pesne läßt Louise Albertine von Grappendorf mit ihren Händen Blüten streuen, assistiert von einem kleinen Putto, der mit Schmetterlingsflügeln auf sie zuschwebt und ihr ein Blumenbukett bringt.Antoine Pesne zählt mit seinen zahlreichen Portraits der königlich preußischen Familie und der Angehörigen ihres Hofstaates zu den berühmtesten Malern seiner Zeit. Die offiziellen Auftragswerke folgen den hohen Erwartungen an den königlichen Hofmaler. Unser bezauberndes Bildnis der Louise Albertine von Grappendorf dagegen spricht schon die galante, intimere Bildsprache des Rokokos, welche Antoine Pesne zum Ende seines künstlerischen Schaffens für sehr nahe und vertraute Abbildungen von Personen wählt.Erläuterungen zum KatalogAntoine Pesne Frankreich Rokkoko Französische Schule 17./18.

With her youth and beauty, she brought glamour and grace to the court of Princess Luise Amalie of Prussia and Queen Mother Sophie Dorothea, the mother of Frederick II, in the first half of the 18th century.It is probably from this period that the Prussian court painter Antoine Pesne was commissioned to paint Freifrau von Grappendorf.Antoine Pesne chose to depict the pretty young woman as the goddess of flowers and youth. In doing so, he follows the tradition of famous artists such as Rembrandt or Titian, who also depicted the goddess Flora as a young girl surrounded by flowers.However, the artist chooses an equally divine and suggestively slightly frivolous depiction of the young lady as Flora. He places her as a three-quarter figure light as a feather on clouds and dresses her in a precious, lace-trimmed, blue Atlas robe, which - framed by a diagonally guided flower sash - allows her left breast to flash out at her lush décolleté. Her radiantly beautiful face fixes the viewer with a friendly, almost conspiratorial gaze; she smiles so gracefully that small dimples form on her cheeks.Pesne has Louise Albertine von Grappendorf scatter flowers with her hands, assisted by a little putto who floats towards her with butterfly wings and brings her a bouquet of flowers.With his numerous portraits of the royal Prussian family and members of their court, Antoine Pesne is one of the most famous painters of his time. The officially commissioned works follow the high expectations of the royal court painter. Our enchanting portrait of Louise Albertine von Grappendorf, on the other hand, already speaks to the gallant, more intimate pictorial language of the Rococo, which Antoine Pesne chose at the end of his artistic career for very close and familiar depictions of people.Explanations to the Catalogue
