Description

? A FUJIAN ‘IMITATION-BRONZE’ LACQUERED WOOD GROUP DEPICTING LU DONGBIN AND ZHONGLI QUAN, 19TH CENTURY

China. Cleverly lacquered to simulate various metals, the seated Lu Dongbin with a fly whisk strewn to his shoulder, his hands clasped together and supported on a raised knee, accompanied by Zhongli Quan who stands with his hands raised to the sky in abandonment, one hand clasped around a fan, all raised on a greenish bronze-colored stand in the form of craggy rocks, separated by a large stem of lingzhi.

Provenance: The private collection of Jules Speelman, London, United Kingdom. Sotheby’s London, 1 November 2023, lot 252, estimate GBP 3,000 or approx. EUR 3,700 converted and adjusted for inflation at the time of writing). Jules Speelman, a world-renowned dealer and collector of East Asian art, has over 60 years of experience. He joined his late father, Alfred, in 1964, continuing a family business that dates back three generations to 19th-century Holland and later expanded to England. Originally dealing in European antiques, A & J Speelman gradually shifted its focus to Asian art, particularly figurative sculpture and works of art from the past 2,000 years. Under Jules Speelman’s direction, the firm is now among the foremost in the field. In 2024, the 28-lot sale of the Jules Speelman Collection at Bonhams totaled €15.2 million, far exceeding its €4.2 million estimate. Asaph Hyman, Global Head of Chinese Ceramics & Works of Art at Bonhams, praised Speelman as “one of the greatest and most respected dealers and collectors,” renowned for his keen eye for rarity and quality.
Condition: Good condition with wear and natural imperfections. Small losses and some chips to the extremities. Minor losses to the gilt and flaking to the lacquer. Small old repairs.

Imbued with utmost spirituality and dynamism, these figures showcase the outstanding workmanship of Fujian lacquer craftsmen. They depict two of the Eight Immortals in the Daoist pantheon, Lu Dongbin and Zhongli Quan.

Lu Dongbin is one of the most widely known of the Eight Immortals and often acts as their leader. He is a legendary scholar and poet said to have lived during the Tang dynasty and whose lifetime supposedly spanned two hundred and twenty years. He is considered one of the earliest masters of neidan, or internal alchemy. In Chinese art, Lu Dongbin is generally depicted dressed as a scholar carrying a sword that dispels evil spirits.

Zhongli Quan, whose magical fan can resurrect the dead and transform stones into silver or gold, is said to have been born in the Han dynasty. Following his father's example, he became a member of the court, advancing to be general of one of the armies of the Han dynasty. In his last battle, he was forced to flee into the mountains where he came across an old man who led him to a spiritual sanctuary, where he learned the ways of the immortal rituals and alchemy. After three hard days of teaching, he was dismissed and told to use his newfound powers to serve his people. When he turned back to talk to the man, he and his home had vanished. Using his power of alchemy and his magical fan, he created silver and gold coins from stones and saved people from poverty and famine.
