XUE SONG 1965Experiences are often the source of artistic creation. When Xue Song’s studio burned to the ground, the accident inspired him to use ash and soot as a symbol of rebirth in his art. Xue uses charred and burned fragments of his previous works, newspapers and books to create collages of iconic politicians, calligraphy, Western art icons and pieces inspired by classical Chinese watercolour paintings. In Monument on Grey Background (lot 24), Xue draws from one of Xu Beihong’s famous horse paintings, reconstructing its iconic imagery using hundreds of prints of historically and politically famous figures, whilst prints of early Chinese stone rubbings are used for the background. In doing so, Xue attempts to generate a conversation with the old masters, creating a discourse between the old and the new, and building bridges between the East and the West.

The iconography depicted presents the historical Buddha in the earth-witness gesture. This refers to when Shakyamuni triumphed over the demon Mara, who was attempting to divert him from his objective of becoming enlightened through meditation. When Mara challenged Shakyamuni’s right to enlightenment, Shakyamuni moved his hand from his lap to touch the ground with his middle finger calling the earth to witness his entitlement to spiritual enlightenment. Shakyamuni’s unshakable resol e forced ara and his army of demons to ee moments later, Shakyamuni attained enlightenment.

69 λ TWO RARE CHINESE NODDING HEAD FIGURES OF MANCHU OFFICIALS 18TH/EARLY 19TH CENTURY Their heads and hands carved in ivory, their robes and hats of woven silk, one with a rank badge enclosing a golden pheasant for a second rank civil official, each stands with his hands held slightly before him, their eyes, mouths, moustaches and beards detailed in black, each with his long hair in a plaited queue, the figures stand on later gilt and black lacquer rectangular plinths, 58cm. (2)

£7,000-9,000 Cf. W R Sargent, The Copeland Collection: Chinese and Japanese Ceramic Figures, pp.192-195, no.93 for a similar pair of seated Manchu nobles with ivory heads and hands in The Peabody Essex Museum of Salem, Massachusetts; see also Christie’s London, 23rd November 2006, lot 94 for a related plaster nodding head figure of a lady wearing embroidered silk robes.

Such figures may have developed from the tradition of three-dimensional ancestral figures which originated in Hunan and Fujian, probably as an extension of ancestor paintings. Ancestral figures were first produced before the 1st century AD, and the tradition continued in Fujian into the Qing dynasty. However, as with the pair in The Peabody Essex Museum, the stylisation of these figures suggests that they are more likely to have been created for the export market rather than as functional ancestral images, and so they are probably more related to the many unfired clay nodding head figures exported to the West in the 18th and 19th centuries.

At the early age of 35, he was appointed as Chief Manager of SBC and, under his direction, the company became the leading bank in Asia. After a successful career in ong Kong, ackson returned to the UK in 1891, taking charge of the company’s office in London. e was knighted in 1899 and three years later he retired and received the additional title of Baronet.

123 A MASSIVE CHINESE BLACK AND CELADON JADE ‘YINGXIONG’ GROUP QING DYNASTY The stone skilfully worked with a single-horned mythical beast carved from the black section of the stone whilst an eagle is predominantly picked out in celadon, both creatures stand side by side gazing backwards with well-defined bulging eyes, the eagle with its left leg raised and talons tightly clasped, with an old paper label to the shoulder of the lion-like beast, all raised on a rocky platform, the black and celadon areas of the stone both with white and russet markings, 34cm, 10kg.

£8,000-12,000 Provenance: from the collection of Reverend Victor Farmer (1898-1977) and thence by descent. Whilst Farmer sold several Chinese ceramics at Sotheby’s in 1961, he was primarily a collector of Chinese hardstones and other works of art. Much of his collection was also sold at Phillips on 15th February 1978.

The imagery depicted is an interpretation of the motif of an eagle, ying, and a bear, xiong, which together form the word yingxiong, a homophone for ‘hero’. The theme of an eagle and bear first appeared on Western Han dynasty bronze ‘champion’ vases. This developed throughout later periods into more stylised representations where the bear is often rendered as a mythical beast resembling a lion and the eagle is sometimes portrayed as a phoenix.

Cf. A Forsyth and B McElney, Jades from China, p.292, no.292 for a Ming dynasty jade carving of an eagle perched on a lion-like mythical animal in the collection of The Museum of East Asian Art, Bath; see also Sotheby’s Hong Kong, 1st December 2016, lot 172 for another Ming piece with a comparable subject matter and lot 203 for a related small 17th/18th century yellow jade ‘yingxiong’ carving depicting a bird of prey with a similarly rendered mythical beast.

THE REVEREND VICTOR FARMER (1898-1977) The Farmer Collection was begun in the late 19th century by William Farmer, who moved to Hong Kong and became manager of the Peak Hotel in 1888 and later built and managed the Victoria Hotel. His son, Victor Farmer, served in the First World War as a subaltern in the Suffolk Regiment. Victor then joined Brunner Mondlate ICI in 1921 and married in 1925. The newly wed couple moved to Canton and subsequently to Harbin, eventually settling in Tianjin where they stayed several years, with Victor adding to the family’s Chinese art collection. He then became the chairman of Brunner Mondlate ICI and they moved to Shanghai.

After the formation of the People’s Republic of China, the Farmers were granted an exit visa in 1953, but sadly Mrs. Farmer died that year.

Unusually Mr. Farmer was granted permission to take his entire collection with him on his departure from China. On leaving China, he first stopped briefly in Hong Kong, before returning to England in 1954, where he took Holy Orders in 1965. During this period he joined the Oriental Ceramic Society and lent many of the pieces from his collection to the Society for inclusion in its exhibitions. The Reverend Farmer eventually retired in 1975, dying two years later.

151 A RARE CHINESE FAMILLE ROSE ‘LA DAME AU PARASOL’ PLATE C.1740 After a design by Cornelis Pronk, brightly enamelled with a young lady and her attendant beneath a parasol, with aquatic birds and bulrushes, the border with panels of figures and birds on a bright pink cell diaper, the reverse with eight iron-red insects, 25.5cm.

£8,000-12,000 Cornelis Pronk (1691-1759) was a Dutch draughtsman and painter. This design, drawn in 1734, was the first that Pronk made for the Dutch East India Company and the drawing was sent to China and Japan to be copied onto porcelain. The pattern appears on Chinese famille rose, blue and white, and Imari pieces.

Cf. The Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, object no.RP-T-1967-18 for Pronk’s original drawing; see also C J A Jörg, Pronk Porcelain: Porcelain After Designs by Cornelis Pronk, pp.14-18 and pp.60-73 for a discussion on this design; see also Christie’s London, 2nd November 2016, lot 52 and Sotheby’s New York, 15th-18th January 2004, lot 61 for closely related plates.

£50,000-70,000 Provenance: from an important Asian collection.

The colour of this glaze is also known as ‘sacrificial red’. According to legend, the Xuande Emperor (r.1426-35) wanted to use a set of bright red ceramics to make offerings to the Sun, and so he instructed the workers at the Jingdezhen kilns accordingly. Despite numerous attempts, they were unable to create the red the Emperor desired, and so, unsatisfied by their work, he threatened to execute the workers. Upon hearing this news, one of the potter’s daughters went to the kilns, only to find that her father had been imprisoned for failing to produce the correct colour. In protest, she sacrificed herself by throwing her body into the blazing kiln. When the kiln was opened, the workers were astonished to find that all the ceramics inside were now red, supposedly having been stained by the girl’s blood. This is one explanation for the origin of the term ‘sacrificial red’.

拍賣規則

競買人須知 1.

簡介：本規則適用於本公司的買家，特別是對 於新加入拍賣的競買人。所有拍賣品的資訊和 估價都可以在相關拍賣圖錄中翻閱。如果您有 任何疑問，本公司的工作人員將非常樂意為您 服務。本中文條款如有任何詮釋上的問題，一 概以英語版本爲準。

2.

仲介：作為拍賣行，本公司通常以代理買方的 身份簽署合同。爲了保護客戶隱私權，本公司 不會公開競買人的資訊。

3.

估價：估價是爲了提供競買人一個大概的價格 浮動範圍。所有提供的拍賣品均設有賣家所定 的保密的最低價，拍品不會以低於此價出售。 圖錄上較低的估價價格即可能是該拍賣品的底 價。估價不包括競買人支付的傭金和VAT增值 稅。估價會在拍賣之前提供給競買人。

8.

買入價格：競買人需要付成交價和傭金（每 件拍品的成交價低於£500,000 取25%，超過 £500,000 上部份 取12%）+ VAT增值稅 VAT增值稅：買家須以有關法律所規定的稅率 及時間繳付增值稅。增值稅會在成交價和傭金 之上收取。帶有星號（*）的拍品是從歐盟國 家進口的，將徵收20%進口VAT增值稅。帶有 雙星符號（**）的拍品是從歐盟以外的國家進 口的，當下的VAT增值稅為5%。如果沒有以上 敘述的兩種符號，該拍品就不需要徵收VAT增 值稅。 威立士拍賣行：本公司是賣家的仲介，所有拍 品的資訊均源自於賣家，同時也會檢查拍品的 情況。本公司在關於拍品的目錄、品相報告和 另外口頭與書面的所有陳述，均只屬於意見的 表述，而不應依據為事實的陳述。目錄和品相 報告中所提及的有關瑕疵和未經修復的敘述只 作為對該拍品的參考，不應被依據為拍品的真 實狀況。所以競買人在拍賣前仔細檢查拍品情 況是一個明智的選擇。但如果發現拍品存在‘ 蓄意偽造’的情況，在三個星期內可能可以被 退還。（蓄意偽造的詳細解釋可以在本公司的 拍賣條款裏查閱） 電器拍品：所有電器拍品都以古董的形式進行 拍賣，如果是用於日常使用請在拍賣之前與專 業電器公司確認其安全性。 出口拍品：買家如果想要出口競拍所得物品需 要查明：a）是否需要出口許可證。b)要攜帶 入境的國家是否對該類拍品有禁令。比如說， 可能會禁止攜帶象牙。如有需要請詢問本公司 前臺服務。但上述的兩種情況都不作為取消交 易和推遲付款的原因。

9.

競投：競買人需要在拍賣前進行註冊，登記時 需要提供姓名，位址。新客戶需要向本公司提 供身份證明。如需要電話競投服務，請儘早與 本公司進行登記。

10. 競投委託：該項服務是以書面的形式委託威立 士在不超過其指定金額下競投拍賣品。工作人 員將參考底價，盡力以最低價進行競投，如果 威立士收到兩個或以上相同價格的書面競投， 則以最先與本公司簽訂委託競投協定者為成功 競投者。 11. 付款方式：按照規定，成交拍品需要付清所有 遺留款項以後才能取貨。關於付款方式請提前 與本公司前臺聯系。 12. 取貨和存儲：請查閱本公司拍賣條款裏關於取 貨和儲存的有關信息。所有推遲提取的拍品都 會徵收相應的存儲費用。 賣家委託條件 1.

SOCIETY OF FINE ART AUCTIONEERS AND VALUERS and the ROYAL INSTITUTION OF CHARTERED SURVEYORS CONDITIONS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION FOR BUYERS 1.

Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms.

All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues.

Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.

2.

Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed.

Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller.

3.

Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive.

4.

The purchase price. The Buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon of 25% plus VAT @20% (totalling 30% inclusive) on the first £500,000 and 12% plus VAT @20% (14.4%) inclusive thereafter.

5.

VAT. (†) indicates that VAT at the current standard rate is payable by the purchaser on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK. The symbol (Ω) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union and the present position is that these lots are liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both the hammer price and the buyer’s premium).

Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax.

6.

We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on information provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in so far as we have examined the goods and make a representation about their condition, we shall be liable for any defect which that examination ought to have revealed to the auctioneer but which would not have been revealed to the buyer had the buyer examined the goods. Additionally, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale).

7.

Electrical goods. These are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first.

8.

Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required for the goods to leave the U.K. and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing the goods in question into the destination country because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory. Charges may be applicable for export licences. Ask us if you need help. The denial of any permit or licence shall not justify cancellation or rescission of the sale contract or any delay in payment.

9.

Bidding. Bidders will be required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. Some form of identification will be required if you are unknown to us. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding.

10. Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone or fax.

11. Methods of Payment. As a general rule any cheques tendered will need to be cleared before removal of the goods is permitted. Please discuss with our Office in advance of the sale if other methods of payment are envisaged (except cash).

12. Collection and storage. Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collected promptly. Any delay may involve the buyer in paying storage charges.

TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS 1.

Interpretation. In these Terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the Seller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent we assume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that the consignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’, ‘us’, etc. refer to the Auctioneers.

2.

Commission is charged to sellers at the following rates: 15% + VAT on each lot sold for up to £999, 10% + VAT on each lot realising £1,000 and above.

3.

Removal costs. Items for sale must be consigned to the sale room by any stated deadline and at your expense. We may be able to assist you with this process but any liability incurred to a carrier for haulage charges is solely your responsibility.

4.

Loss and damage waiver. We are not regulated by the FSA for the provision of insurance to clients. However, we for our own protection assume liability for property consigned to us at lower pre-sale estimate.

To justify accepting liability, we make a charge of 1.5% of the hammer price plus VAT or, if unsold, our mid estimate of the hammer price. If the owner of goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, they then remain at owner’s risk unless and until the property in them passes to the Buyer or they are collected by or on behalf of the owner, and clause 4 is inapplicable.

5.

Illustrations. The cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider that the lot should be illustrated your permission will usually be asked first. The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of us, the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue.

6.

Minimum bids and our discretion. Goods may be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 7.

7.

We may sell lots below the reserve provided we account to you for the same sale proceeds as you would have received had the reserve been the hammer price. If you specifically give us ‘discretion’ we may accept a bid of up to 10% below the formal reserve.

Reserves. (a) You are entitled to place prior to the auction a reserve on any lot consigned, being the minimum hammer price at which that lot may be sold. Reserves must be reasonable and we may decline to offer goods which in our opinion would be subject to an unreasonably high reserve (in which case goods carry the storage and insurance charges stipulated in these Terms of Consignment). (b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent. (c) Where a reserve has been placed only we may bid on your behalf and only up to the reserve (if any) and you may in no circumstances bid personally.

8.

Electrical items. These are subject to detailed statutory safety controls.

Where such items are accepted for sale you accept responsibility for the cost of testing by external contractors. Goods not certified as safe by an electrician (unless antiques) will not be accepted for sale. They must be removed at your expense on your being notified. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.

9.

Soft furnishings. The sale of soft furnishings is strictly regulated by statute law in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to infringe safety regulations will not be offered and must be removed at your expense.

We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense. The rights of disposal referred to in clause 8 and 9 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection on request.

10. Descriptions. Please assist us with accurate information as to the provenance etc. of goods where this is relevant. There is strict liability for the accuracy of descriptions under modern consumer legislation and in some circumstances responsibility lies with sellers if inaccuracies occur. We will assume that you have approved the catalogue description of your lots unless informed to the contrary.

Where we are obliged to return the price to the buyer when the lot is a deliberate forgery under Condition 15 of the Conditions of Sale and we have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us the sale proceeds. The liability to reimburse the sale proceeds shall not arise where you are acting reasonably and honestly and are unaware of the forgery but we are or ought to have been aware of it.

11. Unsold and withdrawn items. If an item is unsold it may with your consent be re-offered at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item is unsaleable you must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on being so informed. Otherwise, storage charges may be incurred.

We reserve the right to charge for storage in these circumstances at a reasonable daily rate.

12. Withdrawn and bought in items. These are liable to incur a charge of up to 10% plus VAT of the reserve or low estimate on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued.

You authorise any sums owed by you to us on other transactions to be deducted from the sale proceeds. You must note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 10 above.

(b)

Any statement as to authorship, attribution, origin, date, age, provenance and condition is a statement of opinion and is not to be taken as a statement of fact. The Company reserves the right, in forming their opinion, to consult and rely upon any expert or authority considered by them to be reliable.

Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by the artist. (When the artist’s forename(s) is not known, a series of asterisks, followed by the surname of the artist, whether preceded by an initial or not, indicates that in our opinion the work is by the artist named.

Attributed to Edward Lear: In our opinion probably a work by the artist but less certainty as to authorship is expressed than in the preceding category.

Studio of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by an unknown hand in the studio of the artist which may be or may not have been executed under the artist’s direction.

Circle of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by an as yet unidentified but distinct hand, closely associated with the named artist but not necessarily his pupil.

(a) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 ‘information to buyers’.
