拍品描述 翻译
China, c. 3300-2200 BC. The thick-walled cong with gently rounded sides and a cylindrical interior, carved to each corner with a stylized human and animal mask design. The eyes and noses as well as the raised bands above the masks and recesses in between are finely incised with line and scroll designs. The faces are divided with a gently recessed vertical band to the center of each side.?The opaque, partially calcified stone of a creamy-white tone suffused with varying shades of brown and dark mottling.Provenance: From The Sam and Myrna Myers Collection, Paris, France. Acquired between circa 1965-2012.Condition: Good condition, commensurate with age, with ancient wear and inherent natural imperfections, such as inclusions and fissures, some of which have developed into small hairlines. Distinct traces of weathering and erosion. Occasional chips, smoothened over time, along the slightly worn-down edges. Scattered minor nicks and faint surface scratches. The stone surface, partially altered, with some areas of soil encrustation.Weight: 407.8 gDimensions: Height 5.7 cm, Length 5.9 cmThe Liangzhu culture and its remarkable jade artifacts came to prominence in the late 1980s, when the discovery of several significant cemeteries brought international attention to the richness of their tomb contents. Since then, a wave of new archaeological findings has dramatically transformed our understanding of this late Neolithic civilization. At the Mojiaoshan site, Chinese archaeologists have uncovered the remains of a vast, walled settlement covering 750 acres. This site, the largest known walled settlement from late Neolithic China, includes palatial foundations, jade workshops, habitation zones, and a sophisticated network of internal waterways.Distinguished by their quantity, variety, and superb craftsmanship, Liangzhu jades are among the most iconic artifacts in the history of Chinese civilization. Among them, the jade cong stands out as the most emblematic. These objects feature a square exterior surrounding a circular inner hollow, with each corner serving as a vertical axis for the carving of symmetrical mask motifs. Early examples are typically squat and intricately decorated with deities or animal forms. In contrast, later versions are tall and slender, with stylized facial features dominated by prominent eyes and noses.The present cong is incised with two horizontal tiers featuring eight 'crowned divine figure' motifs. Two parallel lines above each figure signify the crown, while short horizontal ridges, engraved with swirling cloud patterns, depict the nose. The eyes consist of double circles connected by short, intermittent incised lines, with two short extensions on either side to mark the corners of the eyes.Literature comparison:Compare a closely related two-tiered jade cong with masks, Neolithic period, Liangzhu culture, c. 3300-2200 BC, 9.5 cm long, in the Smithsonian National Museum of Asian Art, accession number F1916.499.Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Christie's New York, 17 March 2016, lot 906Price: USD 269,000 or approx.
