LAMQUA (ACTIVE 1825-1860)Portrait of the 'Hong Merchant' Houqua, circa 1850Oil on canvas, framed. 63.5cm (25in) high x 48.8cm (19in) wide.Footnotes:約1850年 關喬昌（活躍於1825-1860） 行商伍秉鑒肖像 布面油畫 有框Provenance: John Kearsley Mitchell (1793-1858)Silas Weir Mitchell (1829-1914)Martyn Gregory, London來源： John Kearsley Mitchell (1793-1858)Silas Weir Mitchell (1829-1914)倫敦古董商Martyn GregoryPublished, Illustrated and Exhibited:Martyn Gregory, Catalogue 100: Two Centuries of 'China trade' paintings 1770-1970, 2019-2020, pp.76-77, no.89展覽著錄： Martyn Gregory，《Catalogue 100: Two Centuries of 'China trade' paintings 1770-1970》，2019-2020年，第76-77頁，編號89 John Kearsley Mitchell was an important Philadelphia doctor who made three voyages to China as surgeon on board a ship. He published in The Philadelphia Journal of the Medical and Physical Sciences in 1821 detailing the medical anomalies he encountered during his travels. His son, Silas Weir Mitchell, was also a leading physician in Philadelphia sometimes nicknamed the father of psychiatry for his pioneering work on the nervous system.Wu Bingjian (1769-1843), known to Westerners as Houqua, was the most prominent Hong merchant in Canton (Guangzhou) during the early nineteenth century. Hong merchants were a group of Chinese wholesalers in Guangzhou with whom Westerners conducted their trade. Born in the same year as Napoleon and Wellington, Houqua's death in 1843 coincided with the opening of the Treaty Ports. In the early 1800s, he was perhaps the richest man on earth, with a web of contacts spanning the globe. His wealth, estimated at $26 million in 1834 (for comparison, banker Nathan Rothschild possessed $5.3 million in 1828), was primarily amassed through trade in luxury goods, alongside shrewd investments in American railways and other new technologies. Houqua was so renowned that Madame Tussaud's in London displayed a waxwork figure of him.Robert Bennet Forbes noted Houqua's leadership, stating, 'by his great wealth, intelligence, and position, he was universally recognized as their leader' (Personal Reminiscences, 1882, p.370). As an investor, banker, and entrepreneur, Houqua earned the respect of both Chinese and Western colleagues. He was known for both his wealth and frugality: 'His generosity was boundless, and in accounts he was singularly methodical and precise, never multiplying them beyond what was absolutely necessary. The two or three rooms which he occupied during hours of business in his vast, well-regulated Hongs were furnished with simplicity itself' (William Hunter, The 'Fan Kwae' at Canton before Treaty Days, 1825-1849, 1882, pp.29-30).Chinese 'export' portraits of Houqua likely originated from a series of portraits painted by George Chinnery, a British artist residing in Macao and Guangzhou in the 1820s-1840s. One such portrait, now in the HSBC Collection in Hong Kong, was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1831. This painting was copied by unidentified Chinese artists in Guangzhou workshops as well as by foreign artists like Speakman. These portrait copies served as important branding tools, displayed in the offices of businessmen worldwide, demonstrating Houqua's extensive reach and financial empire. See R.Hutcheon, Chinnery, Hong Kong, 1989, p.78.During the second and third decades of the nineteenth century, the American merchant house Perkins & Co. had a particularly close connection with Houqua. However, in 1829, Russell & Co. took over the Perkins agency and its valuable association with Houqua. Samuel Russell of Middletown, Connecticut, who had gone to China under the auspices of Edward Carrington of Providence, founded Russell & Company as a commission house on January 1, 1824. His palatial house in Middletown was completed in 1830. For many years, Russell & Co. was the leading American business on the China coast, maintaining profitable trading connections with India, Europe, and the United States. The firm was absorbed into Shewan & Co. in 1891.Portraits of Houqua hung in the substantial homes of several New England families associated with Russell & Co., including the Lows, Forbes, Heards, and Delanos. These portraits, including the present one, were likely gifts from Houqua himself. Judging by Houqua's age in this portrait, it was probably executed in the early 1830s. Samuel Russell, described as 'genial and kindly' by William Hunter, retired at the end of 1836.See a very similar portrait of Houqua in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and illustrated by J.Harrison-Hall and J.Lovell, China's Hidden Century 1796-1912, London, 2023, p.245.Saleroom notices:Please note that the provenance and publication information is incorrectly stated in the printed catalogue, but is correctly stated in the online description, and should read 'John Kearsley Mitchell (1793-1858), Silas Weir Mitchell (1829-1914)' with the piece illustrated in Martyn Gregory, Catalogue 100.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
