1900réf. 164294No date. circa1900. 11 original hand painted fan designs approximately 40 x 15cm laid down on archival sheets 51 x 38cm. Each design is unique some are brightly coloured whilst others are more sombre and some have a lacquer or metallic overprinting and silver flecking. Each of the designs has been backed with Japanese paper. Undated and in very good condition apart from some very minor spotting to the backing sheets not affecting the image they appear to be early 1900s. The collection is housed in a custom-made clamshell case. The earliest recorded sighting of the Japanese fan was in the 6th century CE where burial tombs were adorned with pictures of fans. Drawing on the fan began around the Heian period 794-4485 and became such a hit that laws were created to restrict their use to particular social classes. Historically Japanese hand fans were tools of aristocrats and the samurai class. They were a way to signify social standing and even communicate messages. Japanese fan designs enchanted westerners when they first became exposed to them. Those influenced include the Australian artist Charles Conder who in the 1890s inspired by Japanese fan designs made a speciality of painting them on silk. Various images painted on these fans have symbolic or seasonal meanings. One shows an array of golden origami cranes on a red background symbolizing long life. Another is decorated with peonies symbols of fertility and nobility whose flowering marks the end of spring and beginning of summer. A third is decorated with images of pine bamboo and plum blossom - a combination representing health and longevity because all three plants can withstand cold weather. Others have more abstract images based on the flow of rivers the sheen of silk and other themes. . unknown

réf. 8653218. CHINESE PITH PAINTINGS. ALBUM OF 30 FISH ON 12 SHEETS. Album of 12 sheets of pith approximately 19 x 26 cm each mounted onto pages within covers approx. 24.7 x 34.3 cm covered in brocade with ties. A wonderful mid-19th century example of this realistic genre which uses the three dimensionality afforded by the surface of the inner plant pith of the Tetrapanax papyriferum a ginseng relative that grow to the size of a small tree shaved as here into thin sheets and painted with opaque colors. The fish sparkle and the colors glow the fish accuraely depicted in form and color. Pith by its very nature is extremely fragile and larger sheets such as those employed here even more than usually frangible. Thus the completeness of the sheets with almost no lost pigmeted sections is most unusual. The covers are a bit worn though as usual the paintings show occasional cracking and repair but a worthy example of its kind. unknown books

1740réf. 60893Yangzhou China: Huang Shen é»„ç››ä¹‹å° ca. 1740-1770. Oblong 4to. 11.5 x 11 in. 9 leaves unnumbered. accordion-style leporello double-page leaves with 8 ink & hand-coloured paintings on paper sized 10 x 9.25 mounted w/ pale blue paper framed leaves each w/ gilt speckled decorative paper mounted facing. Original wooden boards hand-lettered label mounted on front cover scuffed some loss to wear rubbing splitting to covers horizontally but sound minor closed tear to inner front pastedowns occasional minor dustsoiling & thumbing still a VG- exemplar. An extraordinary album of intimately inked and coloured paintings on paper by the famed Qing Dynasty painter with each leaf inscribed by the artist with a couplet poem and with two seals. One shows a Chinese scholar and young boy or novice leaning into the wind with the couplet “Having endured the weather welcoming the colour of Autum; Together with ice and frost proud of one’s years.” Another with a fisherman seated on a mat his hat hung over the creel and holding the fishing rod ending with “preserve in brush and tongue and catch a giant turtle.” One shows an apparently drunk official sprawled on cushions surrounded by vases and ceramic ware entitled “How can Little Cao endure the tyranny of Princess Hu” One painting in the series draws from a couplet that appears often in ancient Chinese poetry anthologies and even a poetry manual depicted with well-dressed bearded official facing a stooped elder stating “Asked what is the Zen mind there is nothing to say; White clouds ceaselessly fly in the blue sky.”The seventh painting in the album illustrates two finely dressed individuals with one bearing a short sword strapped to his back and the other holding a speckled deer sporting a riding blanket and the couplet version: 霜冷玄猿ä¾è—¥ç¶ which does appear in such early anthologies as A New Collection of Entertainment Collections æ‡‰é…¬å½™é¸æ–°é›† 尺牘 帖å¼. The final painting in the album appears to be another version of Huang Shen’s scroll painting in the Taipei Palace Museum entitled “Bo Le judges horses” 清黃慎畫伯樂相馬圖軸. The painting depicts a similarly dressed Chinese hostler with different headgear with emphasis on the pair of horses and alternate hat between the two. The version in this album allowing more horizontal space features an additional horse with much finer definition and no large overhanging tree. The couplet in both reads “Two fine steeds already led by master equestrian Wang Liang; They shall bee Bo Le’s approval at a glance. Huang Shen’s 1687-1772 painting style paralleled his calligraphy often with a similar fluidity and organic flow to the figures and objects. Born originally in Ninghua Fujian Province he began his training under Shangguan Zhou and after moving to Yangzhou in 1724 to make his living as a painter he developed a style matching the tastes of his clients. He eventually became known as a figure painter and as one of the Eight Eccentrics from Yangzhou local artists known for their unorthodox painting style. Although his individual scrolls appear in the market on a consistent basis his albums such as this one are quite scarce. Huang Shen, é»„ç››ä¹‹å° hardcover
