Few early examples of this type appear to be recorded and the cult coincided with the rule of Jayavarman VII, who built the great royal temple at Banteay Chhmar. Embracing Buddhism with fever, he aligned himself with the image of the Buddha seated on a serpent, as the divine form under which he would be venerated.Compare with a closely related example in the Eilenberg Collection, see S.E.Lee, Ancient Cambodian Sculpture, Asia House Gallery, New, York, 1969, p.92, fig.54, and two other examples in G.Coedès, Bronzes Khmers, 1923, plate XXI, figs 1 and 2; and another sold at Christie's New York, 20 March 2002, lot 11 and J.Menzies, Buddha: Radiant Awakening, Sydney, 2001, cat. no.93, pp.128–129.柬埔寨 吳哥窟風格 十二世紀 銅目支鄰陀龍王護佛坐像來源：巴黎Robert Rousset（1901-1981）舊藏，得自二十世紀五十至七十年代巴黎Jean-Pierre Rousset（1936-2021）舊藏For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

RARE PAIRE DE FAUTEUILS EN HUANGHUALI, NANGUANMAOYIXVIIe/XVIIIe siècle A RARE PAIR OF HUANGHUALI 'SOUTHERN OFFICIAL HAT' ARMCHAIRS, NANGUANMAOYI17th/18th centuryEach armchair generously proportioned with a well-figured rectangular S-shaped backsplat centred with a reticulated panel enclosing two entwined flowers, flanked by curved corner posts which extend through the rectangular seat frame enclosing a hard mat seat, the outcurved arms supported by tapering side posts and recessed front posts joined by a plain apron, the feet joined by the footrest. 104cm (41in) high x 56cm (22in) wide x 43.5cm (17 1/8in) deep. (2).Footnotes:Provenance: Jean-Pierre Rousset, Paris (1936-2021), acquired in the 1980's Displaying restrained lines and generous yet balanced statuesque proportions and enhanced by the rich lustre of the huanghuali honey-tone wood, the present pair of armchairs embodies the search for simplicity through the beauty and elegance of form, quintessential embodiments of the Ming and early Qing dynasty timeless aesthetic. The master carver allowed only one adornment - the openwork cartouche at the back of each of the backsplats displaying an intertwined blossom converging to form the shape of a lingzhi fungus, symbolic of long life. The 'Southern official's hat' armchair is one of the most prestigious forms of Chinese furniture. Whereas many armchairs of this form feature thick members and rigid lines, the present pair, displaying slender and elegant curves, has a most refined aesthetic, and represents among the most graceful examples of this design. The entirely uncarved surfaces, accentuated by the elegant beading focuses the beholder on the beauty in form and material. This particular design of nanguanmaoyi chairs differs from the 'official's hat' armchair guanmaoyi in that the crestrails continue into the back posts, as opposed to extending horizontally beyond them. In addition, creating the continuous line of the crestrail joining into the rear upright posts is achieved by a rounded, right-angle joint called a 'pipe-joint,' which is also used to join the curved arms to the front posts. Discussing the origin of this form, Robert Jacobsen and Nicholas Grindley refer to bent bamboo construction, popular in the Song and Ming dynasties, as a possible inspiration for the continuous top and arm rails which is a principal feature of 'Southern official's hat' armchairs. An illustration from the 'Legend of the Jade Hairpin' Yuzan Ji, dated circa 1570, depicts a pair of speckled-bamboo tall-back chairs with continuous crestrails; and see also a pair of related huanghuali 'Southern official's hat' armchairs, early 17th century, of similar proportions as the present lot, illustrated by R.Jacobsen and N.Grindley, Classical Chinese Furniture in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, Minneapolis, 1999, pp.52-53.An extremely fine and rare huanghuali low back continuous yokeback armchair, nanguanmaoyi, 17th century, was sold at Bonhams London, 13 May 2021, lot 24. See also a related pair of huanghuali official's hat armchairs, guanmaoyi, 17th/18th century, from the collection of Robert Hatfield Ellsworth, which was sold at Christie's New York, 18 March 2015, lot 106.Ces fauteuils aux lignes sobres et aux majestueuses proportions (généreuses mais équilibrées) mises en valeur par la patine chaude du bois de huanghuali couleur miel, reflètent la quête de simplicité à travers la beauté et l'élégance de la forme, incarnation par excellence de l'esthétique intemporelle de la dynastie Ming. L'ébéniste ne s'est permis qu'un seul ornement – le médaillon ajouré sur chaque dossier montrant des fleurs entrelacées qui créent ensemble la forme d'un champignon lingzhi, symbole de longue vie. Le fauteuil à dossier « en bonnet de lettré du sud » est une des formes les plus prestigieuses du mobilier chinois. Alors que nombre de fauteuils de ce type montrent des montants épais et des lignes rigides, cette paire présente des courbes élancées et élégantes à l'esthétique raffinée, et est un des plus beaux exemples de ce modèle. La surface quasiment sans décor, accentuée par les moulures élégantes, concentre l'attention du spectateur sur la beauté du matériau et de la forme.Ce modèle particulier de fauteuil, nanguanmaoyi, diffère des fauteuils « en bonnet de lettré » guanmaoyi en ce que la traverse supérieure se prolonge dans les montants du dossier, au lieu de se prolonger horizontalement au-delà d'eux. La création de cette ligne continue faite de la traverse supérieure rejoignant les montants arrière du fauteuil est permise par l'utilisation d'un joint coudé en tuyau, qui est aussi utilisé à cet effet pour joindre l'extrémité des accotoirs et leur montant avant.Au sujet de l'origine de cette forme, Robert Jacobsen et Nicholas Grindley mentionnent la construction en bambou recourbé, appréciée sous les dynasties Song et Ming, comme une possible inspiration pour la ligne ininterrompue du dossier et des accotoirs, qui est un des traits principaux des fauteuils « en bonnet de lettré du sud ». Une illustration de la Légende de l'épingle à cheveux en jade (Yuzan ji), daté d'environ 1570, représente une paire de chaises à haut dossier en bambou tacheté avec ces traverses et montants continus ; voir aussi une paire de fauteuils proches en huanghuali « en bonnet de lettré du sud », du début du XVIIe siècle, aux proportions similaires à ceux présentés ici, illustrée dans R. Jacobsen et N. Grindley, Classical Chinese Furniture in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, Minneapolis, 1999, pp.52-53.Un très beau et rare fauteuil en huanghuali à dossier bas continu, nanguanmaoyi, XVIIe siècle, a été vendu chez Bonhams à Londres le 13 mai 2021, lot 24.

VAJRA EN ALLIAGE DE CUIVRE DORÉTibet, XIVe/XVe siècleA RARE GILT COPPER ALLOY VAJRATibet, 14th/15th centuryFinely and heavily cast with nine prongs with detailed makara heads and a central knop grip. 19.5cm (7 5/8in) long.Footnotes:Provenance:Jean-Pierre Rousset, Paris (1936-2021), acquired in the 1970'sReferred to within the name of Shakyamuni's seat of enlightenment (vajrasana), this vajra symbolizes the immutable quality of the spiritual truth Shakyamuni unveiled. Used as ritual implement in Tibet, it is cast with five-prongs, four of them turned inwards on the central prong. The style of this vajra derives from early Ming imperial workshops of the 15th century, but is more finely cast with elaborate treatment of the makara heads who disgorge swirling scrolls that support each prong. The orientation of the makara faces on the outside of the prong shafts is variance that is not clearly defined, but the composition is a clear sign of gifted artists working during the highpoint of Tibetan art in Central Tibet.
