拍品描述 翻译
Expert's note: The exceptional hand polish of the stone and its rich burgundy-red color, along with the exquisitely carved beast, with precise attention to detail and minutely inlaid eyes, leave no doubt as to the present seal's Imperial origin. China, 1736-1795. The rectangular columnar base surmounted by a recumbent two-horned beast with black inlaid eyes, the animal superbly detailed with an articulated spine, finely incised mane and bushy tail, and ferocious expression with the mouth agape in a snarl revealing tangs and tongue. The seal face is carved in relief with the four-character inscription. Inscriptions: To the seal face, 'Su Xing Ye Mei' ('rising early and retiring late'). Provenance: From a private collector of Chinese seals and jades in Paris, France.Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, nibbling and minuscule chips to edges. Weight: 381 gDimensions: Size 6.3 X 6.1 x 5.7 cmQianlong's deep admiration for Han culture is well-documented; he studied the works of Confucius and Mencius, recognizing that a thorough understanding of Han traditions was essential for governing the vast Han majority, whose social foundations were older and more advanced. This awareness, combined with the Qing dynasty's own strength and cultural consciousness, enabled its long-lasting stability. Qianlong's profound engagement with classical Chinese culture is evident in his Imperial seals, many of which feature inscriptions directly or indirectly drawn from Chinese classics and history.'Su Xing Ye Mei' ('rising early and retiring late') is the most frequently encountered instruction in texts of Confucian persuasion and was derived from a poem in the Book of Songs (Shijing), the oldest existing collection of Chinese poetry. It appears to be the minimal demand for all sorts of people; in other words, the first step on the way to socialization. This minimum concession is required from everybody except small children, apparently as a prerequisite for proper conduct of proficient rulers, of men that are regarded as filial sons, and of devoted wives alike. See Antje Richter, ''Sleeping Time in Early Chinese Literature'', Night-time and Sleep in Asia and the West, 2003, p. 34.Auction result comparison: Type: Closely relatedAuction: Christie's Hong Kong, 9 July 2020, lot 2856Price: HKD 2,750,000 or approx.
