拍品描述 翻译
Description The body of the elephant is entirely covered by minute seed pearls, the saddle cloth is of gilt-metal with inset gems and glass stones. The animal carries on its back a small meiping vase of dark blue enamel painted with gold, the trappings inlaid with kingfisher feathers, with strings of tiny coral beads ending with a jade-green glass pendant, the teeth of ivory. Fixed on to a carved wooden stand with a balustrade. Chip to the vase. On a carved wooden stand. The motif of an elephant with a vase on its back has the auspicious meaning of "peaceful times” (taiping youxiang, when there is peace, there are signs). Objects fashioned in the shape of elephants and carrying a vase were used prolifically in official and private and halls of the Imperial palace. Fashioned in all sizes and materials the larger ones carried fans, insignia or clocks. Small pieces as the present object must have been displayed in carved wooden show cases. Compare the small elephant illustrated in the long scroll entitled “Guwan tu” (Pictures of Ancient playthings) dated to the year 1929 and housed by the British Museum, London. This was made for the Yongzheng emperor (r. 1723-35) as a kind of pictorial inventory of his palace collections. It shows some 250 ceramics, jade and hardstone carvings, bronzes, root wood and other kinds of curios ( see China. The Three Emperors, 1662-1795, Exhibition catalogue, Royal Academy of Arts, London 2005, cat. no. 169) The refined and masterful technique of mixing various materials can be found on an Imperial jeweled gilt-bronze elephant clock dating from the Qianlong period. The elephant's body is covered with minute seed pearls, embellished with gems, corals, kingfisher feathers in a very similar style to the presently offered piece. Such intricate works of art were produced in workshops operating under the instructions of the Zaobanchu (Palace Workshop) (see Sotheby's, Hong Kong, 8.4.2007, lot 517). This lot contains materials which require a CITES licence for export outside of the EU contract countries. We would like to inform you that such licenses are usually not granted. Dimensions Height 13.3 cm (incl. stand), length 9.2 cm Literature Compare an elephant clock sold at Sotheby’s, Hong Kong, 8.4.2007, Lot 517 and an elephant of lapislazuli caparisoned with gold, small pearls and precious stones dating to the Qianlong period, today in the Palace Museum Beijing, ill. in: Daily Life in the Forbidden City, Viking 1988, p. 158 Notes VAT: Regular scheme
