拍品描述 翻译
A LARGE WHITE MARBLE FIGURE OF BUDDHA AMITāBHA, NORTHERN QI DYNASTYChina, 550-577. Finely sculpted, the slender figure standing in samabhanga atop a circular lotus pedestal, dressed in layered robes that cling to the contours of the body as they fall in symmetrical folds. The face with a serene expression, crisply detailed with heavy-lidded downcast eyes, and full bow-shaped lips forming a calm smile, flanked by ears with thick pendulous lobes. The hair is arranged in neatly incised whorl-like curls over the domed ushnisha.Provenance: An English private collection, Cotswolds, United Kingdom, formed since the 1970s and thence by descent. A private collection in Somerset, England, United Kingdom, acquired from the above. ArtHistorical Ltd., London, United Kingdom, acquired in 2024 in the local art trade. Founded by Stephen Porter, ArtHistorical Ltd. is a London-based company specializing in fine European sculpture and works of art, with a particular emphasis on pieces in the classical tradition, while also offering Old Master paintings, Oriental textiles, and objects from antiquity.Condition: Good condition, commensurate with age. Old wear, obvious losses, signs of weathering and erosion, encrustations, structural fissures, nicks, chips, and scratches. The neck reattached with associated touchups, the repair executed to a high professional conservation standard in accordance with established museum principles.Weight: 38.6 kg (incl. stand) Dimensions: Height 86 cm (excl. stand), 101 cm (incl. stand)The short-lived Northern Qi dynasty (550-570) followed the Northern Wei (386-535) and preceded the Tang (618-907), widely regarded as high points in the history of Chinese Buddhist art. Although brief, the period witnessed fundamental transformations in Buddhist imagery. Newly developed sculptural forms, exemplified by this work, established the foundation for later artistic achievements. Northern Qi sculpture reflected an indirect adaptation of the Indian Gupta style, particularly the Sarnath school, introduced to China via Central Asian trade routes. The adoption and further development of this foreign visual language corresponded to socio-political shifts at the beginning of the Northern Qi period, when rulers intentionally drew upon non-Han artistic traditions, in contrast to Northern Wei rulers, who sought to integrate themselves within Han culture through a process of Sinicization.This figure of Shakyamuni, the historical Buddha, is marked by a solemn expression, smooth surfaces, and an exceptionally thin outer robe falling in shallow folds. Beneath it, the hem of an undergarment descends in a series of stylized pleats above the feet, a characteristic feature of Northern Qi sculpture. After carving, the marble surface would have been painted with bright pigments, including red, green, blue, and gold. The completed sculpture was then consecrated, enabling it to embody the presence of Buddha and to confer spiritual benefits upon worshipers.Literature comparison:Compare a closely related limestone figure of a Shakyamuni Buddha, Northern Qi dynasty, dated to the late 6th century, 114.3 cm high, in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, accession number 2000.207.Auction result comparison: Type: Closely relatedAuction: Sotheby's New York, 23 March 2004, lot 631Mid-estimate: USD 80,000 or approx.
