A MOLDED QAJAR ‘HUNTING’ TILE, PERSIA, 18TH-19TH CENTURY

Of rectangular form, finely painted in bright tones of green, blue, yellow, and red beneath a clear glaze to depict a rider in high relief, dressed in courtly robes and riding a saddled horse which gallops through a meadow detailed with multicolored flowers and birds, his prey slung over his back, enclosed by line borders.

Provenance: The Farrow Collection of Chinese Works of Art, and thence by descent. George F. Farrow (1916-2001), born in Greenwich, South London, was a prominent British art collector and property developer. After World War II, he expanded a small property firm into one of Britain's largest private landlord companies. Farrow's deep passion for art led to the creation of the Farrow Art Collection, which featured Italian and European artworks, fine furniture, Oriental carpets, and Chinese art. Farrow meticulously cataloged his collection, driven by a lifelong fascination with Oriental rugs, a passion sparked by childhood visits to the Horniman Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum. Although rugs were his primary interest, his first acquisition was a Chinese blue and white charger from the Kangxi period. Farrow described his love of art as "sincere and pure," driven by passion rather than profit, reflecting his impeccable taste and broad interests in the art world.
Condition: Good condition with wear and manufacturing irregularities including glaze cracks, dark spots, burst bubbles, and pitting. Tiny losses to the outer edge.
