Greek kylix, late 5th century BC.Painted and decorated pottery.Attached is a report issued by Ricardo Batista Noguera, former director of the Archaeological Museum of Barcelona, of the Archaeological Museum of Olérdola (Barcelona), of the Archaeological Museum of Catalonia and municipal archaeologist of Tossa de Mar.In very good condition.Measurements: 12.6 cm (diameter) and 18.5 cm with handles.The piece presented here is a kylix, a Greek ceramic type of wine-drinking vessel, characterised by a relatively shallow and wide body that stands on a foot, with two symmetrically arranged handles. It was mainly used at symposia, as its shape allowed for drinking while reclining, as was done at banquets. It is decorated on the inside with the left profile of a lady, with the white decoration of the diadem and earring, framed by circles with depictions of waves, triangles and teeth. On the outside of the vase is a double version of the female profile, also with white details. The scenes are completed by vegetal and conventional figures.
Small vase. Imperial Rome 2nd century AD.Glass.Very good state of preservation. It has a beautiful iridescence, the result of the long time it has been in the ground. Attached is a report issued by Ricardo Batista Noguera, former director of the Archaeological Museum of Barcelona, of the Archaeological Museum of Olérdola (Barcelona), of the Archaeological Museum of Catalonia and municipal archaeologist of Tossa de Mar.Measurements: 9.5 x 10.5 x 10.5 cm.
Vase. Imperial Rome, I BC.Glass.Attached is a report issued by Ricardo Batista Noguera, former director of the Archaeological Museum of Barcelona, of the Archaeological Museum of Olérdola (Barcelona), of the Archaeological Museum of Catalonia and municipal archaeologist of Tossa de Mar.Very good state of preservation.Measurements: 7 cm. high.Small open vessel, with parallel walls, flat bottom and wide mouth with an exvasated lip to facilitate the extraction of cosmetic creams. It is therefore a piece of Roman feminine toilet that stands out for its simplicity and great lightness, and which probably formed part of the group of favourite pieces of its owner, later forming part of her funerary trousseau. Soft iridescence covers part of its outer surface.

The mission specialised in educational, literary and philanthropic work and Dr Rieder was in fact, not a theologian or missionary, but a teacher of mathematics, physics and science to high school students attached to the SOAM. His guiding principles were 'Creating understanding between different cultures' and 'Building bridges between East and West'. While in Qingdao, Dr Rieder collected a wide variety of Chinese art. The objects in the collection thus offer a unique window into the type of antiques that were on the market in Qingdao in the second quarter of the 20th century. As well as demonstrating his passion for Chinese art, his collection also reveals the personal friendships Dr Rieder forged with local artists, some of whom he knew from his teaching activities. Dr Rieder had a scholarly approach to studying his collection. Alongside many of his objects, meticulous notes can sometimes be found detailing his art historical commentaries. The collection was hence Dr Rieder's gateway to the history and culture of China. Objects from the collection were exhibited at the Kunsthaus in Interlaken, Switzerland in 2006 and 2018.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * Y* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.Y Subject to CITES regulations when exporting items outside of the EU, see clause 13.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
