拍品描述 翻译
Scientific Analysis Report: A thermoluminescence analysis report issued by Oxford Authentication on 15 September 2025, based on sample number C125p39, sets the firing date of the three samples taken between 900 and 1500 years ago, consistent with the dating above. A copy of the report accompanies this lot.Expert's note: Given its scale and the refined quality of the modeling, and when assessed against documented Lokapala figures in major public collections in China and internationally, this sculpture clearly derives from the tomb of a person of high rank.China, 7th-8th century. Powerfully modeled and richly covered in partially splashed glazes of amber, emerald green, and straw. Standing on a recumbent bull over a pierced rockwork base, his left hand at the waist and the right arm bent, poised to thrust a spear. The lokapala is dressed in elaborate armor with dragon epaulets and divided breast plate, over a knee-length tunic. His unglazed face is well modeled with a fierce, somewhat hypnotic expression. The head is surmounted by a tall phoenix-form headdress.Provenance: From a private collection in Düsseldorf, Germany, and thence by descent. Condition: Good condition, commensurate with age. Expected wear, signs of burial, encrustations, chips, few losses, glaze flaking, old repairs and touchups, as is typical for authentic Tang dynasty excavations. Three small holes from sample-taking, now filled.Weight: 8.7 kg Dimensions: Height 91.5 cmLarge, imposing guardian figures like the present lot were made to stand guard in the tombs of Tang dynasty elite. These guardians were modeled on the Buddhist 'Heavenly Kings' (tian wang) and carried on the tradition of the massive stone guardian figures (lishi) that were positioned at the entrances to cave-shrines during the early Tang dynasty.The glazed pottery figures of the late 7th to mid-8th centuries had now evolved into military guardians and were dressed in elaborate armor like the present figure. One of the earliest tombs to contain sancai pieces was that of Li Feng, Prince of Guo (622-675), fifteenth son of Emperor Gaozu, founder of the Tang dynasty.By the first decade of the 8th century, large sancai figures were included in the tombs of royalty and nobility both at the capital Chang'an (modern day Xi'an) and at Luoyang, which served as the Eastern Capital in the Tang period. The inclusion of large sancai figures declined following the An Lushan rebellion of 755-763, which had a devastating effect on the Empire, seriously weakening the dynasty, and leading to the loss of the Western Regions.Literature comparison: Compare a closely sancai glazed tomb guardian, dated 700-750, 99 cm high, in the Victoria & Albert Museum, accession number C.48-1955.Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Christie's New York, 22 March 2013, lot 1430Price: USD 15,000 or approx. EUR 18,500 converted and adjusted for inflation at the time of writing: A sancai-glazed pottery figure of a lokapala, Tang dynasty (618-907)Expert remark: Compare the closely related modeling, glazes, and subject with similar pose, expression, and size (86 cm).
