A PAIR OF SILVER- AND GOLD-INLAID BRONZE 'TIGER' WEIGHTS, HAN DYNASTYChina, 206 BC-220 AD. Each finely cast and modeled in a recumbent pose with the head raised in a menacing attitude marked by an open mouth showing sharp teeth. The feline's faces detailed with a broad snout below wide eyes and short ears, their facial features and stripes finely gilt and inlaid with silver. The smoothly finished bronze with a rich, naturally grown patina with malachite and cuprite encrustations. (2)Provenance: From the collection of Joseph Rondina, New York, United States, acquired before 2000. Joseph Rondina (1927-2022) was born into a first-generation Florentine-American family in Auburn, upstate New York. Returning to the U.S. after being stationed in Berlin at the end of the Second World War, he studied at the Whitman School of Design before opening Joseph Rondina Antiques on Madison Avenue in Manhattan's Upper East Side in 1957. In the beginning, his interests focused primarily on European 18th-century decorative arts and furniture, over time developing to include Chinese, Korean, Indian, Thai, Cambodian, Persian and Japanese art, bringing a more esoteric and exotic style to the market. His clientele included stars of the stage and screen, royalty, notables, dignitaries, and denizens of the social register from the United States and abroad.Condition: Very good condition, commensurate with age. Wear, casting flaws, signs of weathering and erosion, corrosion, encrustations, nicks, scratches, losses. The ancient bitumen filling normally found inside such weights is lost.Weight: 161 g and 140 gDimensions: Length 5.8 cm (each) Weights of this type were used to hold down the corners of woven mats used for seating or for the board game liubo. Inlaid animal-form weights were also discovered in the tomb of Dou Wan, consort of Liu Sheng, Prince Jing of Zhongshan (d. 113 BC), alongside food and wine vessels. They were usually made in the shape of animals, often coiled to form a circle, or in the shape of human figures, and even mountains. Usually made of bronze, and often sumptuously decorated in gilding, or inlaid with gold, silver and gemstones, these weights conveyed the high social status of its owner.The tiger is one of the oldest and most revered animals in Chinese history. According to Han mythology, the tiger symbolized the Western cardinal point, and in conjunction with the Green Dragon of the West, Vermilion Bird of the South and Black Tortoise of the North, positioned the burial within the spatial-temporal features of the universe. It is possible that tigers were deemed to protect the tomb occupant against the malign influences they may encounter in their afterlife.Literature comparison:A related coiled feline shape can be seen in a pair of gilt-bronze weights, and in a set of four agate weights, all dated Western Han dynasty, illustrated by M. Wang et al., in the exhibition catalog, A Bronze Menagerie: Mat Weights of Early China, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Boston, 2006, pp. 76-7, nos. 1 and 2. See related excavated examples of bronze recumbent tiger paperweights, in the Shenmu County Museum, illustrated in Bronzes from Northern Shaanxi, Vol. V, Chengdu, 2009, p. 964-966.

A MONUMENTAL BRONZE HEAD OF BUDDHA, LAN NA, NORTHERN THAILAND, 14TH-15th CENTURYExpert's note: Thai bronzes of this size and preservation are exceptionally rare, particularly those that are over 500 years old. It's challenging to imagine the immense scale of the complete sculpture to which this head belonged, standing at well over 2 meters tall. Only a few works of similar magnitude have endured the test of time, and this magnificent head is among the largest privately owned examples. Despite centuries passing, it has retained all its spirit, a near-magical presence, a sense of tranquility, and, above all, its ability to inspire.Buddha's slightly elongated oval face with outlined smiling lips, aquiline nose, neatly incised heavy-lid downcast eyes below finely arched eyebrows in relief, his ears with extended pierced earlobes, the hair arranged in rows of snail shell curls, surmounted by an ushnisha.The bronze heavily cast and with a rich naturally grown patina, showing distinct malachite encrustations. The surface with natural wear overall, resulting from centuries of worshipping.Provenance: From an old private collection in Palm Beach, Florida, USA. Sotheby's New York, 23 March 1995, lot 101. A private collection in New Jersey, USA, acquired from the above, and thence by descent within the family.Condition: Superb condition, commensurate with age, showing extensive wear, weathering, and expected casting flaws. Some losses, nicks, and scratches. The interior of the head with a filling used to mount the head to the stand. The wood base with age cracks and flaking to lacquer.Weight: 24.7 kg (excl. stand)Dimensions: Height 40.5 cm (the head) and 60 cm (incl. stand) Mounted on a wood base, dating from the 20th century. (2)The present bronze bears distinctive features of the Sukhothai style, evident in its oval shape, hairline, and aquiline nose. A closely related example from the Sukhothai tradition is a bronze head now housed in the Sawanvoranayok National Museum (see literature comparison). However, there are slight variations in the facial treatment, such as less upswept eyes and fuller lips. The face also shows arched eyebrows, an upward turn at the sides of the mouth, and an oval marking on the chin. The flowing curves of these features come together harmoniously, making this sculpture an excellent representation of the neighboring Lan Na Kingdom's artistic style. Lan Na was a powerful state in Northern Thailand and actively promoted Buddhism, shaping their Buddhist sculptures with influences from the Sukhothai kingdom.During the late 13th century, Sukhothai reached its peak under King Ram Khamhaeng's reign. However, after his death, the kingdom declined, and various tributary states began to break away rapidly. Lan Na annexed Tak, an ancient town in Sukhothai, and other regions to the north and west asserted their independence. By the 14th century, Sukhothai had diminished to a local power and eventually became a tributary state of the Ayutthaya Kingdom, a neighboring Thai polity. In 1438, after the death of Borommapan, Ayutthaya annexed Sukhothai, bringing an end to its independent existence.Literature comparison:Compare a closely related Buddha bronze head, dated to the 14th-15th century, from Wat Mai, Sukhothai, now in the Sawanvoranayok National Museum, illustrated in Ancient Sukhothai: Thailand's Cultural Heritage, Dawn F.

A LARGE SANCAI-GLAZED 'ARCHER' GUARDIAN FIGURE (LOKAPALA), TANG DYNASTYChina, 7th-8th century. Exquisitely modeled, standing on a recumbent bull over a pierced rockwork base, his right arm bent and left arm extended, poised to shoot an arrow from his now lost bow. The lokapala is dressed in elaborate armor with dragon epaulets and divided breast plate, over a knee-length tunic. His unglazed face is well modeled with a fierce, somewhat hypnotic expression. The head is surmounted by a tall phoenix-form headdress. The figure is splash-glazed in amber, green, and straw.Provenance: From the collection of Joseph Rondina, acquired before 1996, and thence by descent to the last owner. Joseph Rondina (1927-2022) was born into a first-generation Florentine-American family in Auburn, upstate New York. Returning to the U.S. after being stationed in Berlin at the end of the Second World War, he studied at the Whitman School of Design before opening Joseph Rondina Antiques on Madison Avenue in Manhattan's Upper East Side in 1957. In the beginning, his interests focused primarily on European 18th-century decorative arts and furniture, over time developing to include Chinese, Korean, Indian, Thai, Cambodian, Persian and Japanese art, bringing a more esoteric and exotic style to the market. His clientele included stars of the stage and screen, royalty, notables, dignitaries, and denizens of the social register from the United States and abroad.Condition: Excellent condition, commensurate with age. Old repairs and minor touch-ups as generally expected from authentic Tang-dynasty excavations. Old wear, glaze flaking and crackling, small nicks and losses, light scratches, soil encrustations overall.Weight: 11.5 kgDimensions: Height 97.4 cm Large, imposing guardian figures like the present lot were made to stand guard in the tombs of Tang dynasty elite. Those with vibrant sancai (three color) glazes, like the current example, flourished from the late 7th to mid-8th century. One of the earliest tombs to contain sancai pieces was that of Li Feng, Prince of Guo (622-675), fifteenth son of Emperor Gaozu, founder of the Tang dynasty. By the first decade of the 8th century, large sancai figures were included in the tombs of royalty and nobility both at the capital Chang'an (modern day Xian) and at Luoyang, which served as the Eastern Capital in the Tang period. The inclusion of large sancai figures declined significantly following the An Lushan rebellion of 755-763, which had a devastating effect on the empire, seriously weakening the dynasty, and leading to the loss of the Western Regions.Expert's note: Based on the size and quality of the modeling of the present lot, and considering the known examples of Lokapala in public collections, both in China and around the world, it is obvious that the current figure hails from the tomb of an elite individual. 唐代三彩護法立像中國，七至八世紀。護法站在一頭公牛上，他的右臂彎曲，左臂伸展，似乎準備射箭。護法身著盔甲，上龍形肩章和胸甲。臉龐輪廓分明，表情凶狠。頭上戴著頭盔。施琥珀色、綠色和稻草色三彩釉。 來源：美國紐約Joseph Rondina收藏。Joseph Rondina (1927-2022年) 出生於紐約州北部奧本的第一代佛羅倫薩美國人家庭。第二次世界大戰結束後駐紮在柏林，後回到美國。之後他在惠特曼設計學院學習，於 1957 年在曼哈頓上東區的麥迪遜大街開設了 Joseph Rondina 古董店。一開始，他的興趣主要集中在歐洲十八世紀的裝飾藝術和家具。隨著時間的推移，他開始收集印度、中國、韓國和日本的藝術。他的客戶包括來自美國和國外的銀幕明星、皇室成員、名人、政要和社會名流。 品相：狀況極佳，小修，有磨損、釉面剝落和裂紋、小缺口和缺損、輕微劃痕、土壤結殼。 重量：11.5 公斤 尺寸：高 97.4 厘米

(2)While there is great variation within the Mon-Dvaravati tradition, the sensitivity paid to the modeling of these facial features is in keeping with the period's focus on the purity and fluidity of form. As expressed by Jean Boisselier in The Heritage of Thai Sculpture, 1975, page 73, “The school of Dvaravati may stand alongside the great Buddhist artistic traditions of India, so enduring were its innovations and so persuasive its influence on most of the art of Southeast Asia."Literature comparison:Compare a closely related sandstone head of Buddha in the National Museum Bangkok, dated 8th-10th century, with nearly identical facial features.
