A RITUAL INLAID AND LACQUERED WOOD HORN, RKANGLING, TIBET, 18TH CENTURY
This lot is a museum deaccession and is therefore offered without reserve

The curved end-blown trumpet embellished with a tightly wound copper wire and leather pelt to the body, the bell boldly carved as the head of a chu-srin (makara) bearing sharp fangs, the beast’s eyes inlaid in glass, the forehead and chin inlaid with red beads, encircled by a band of lappets, fitted with a leather braided strap.

Provenance: Galerie Hardt (established in 1976), Radevormwald, Germany, before 2020. Acquired by the gallery’s founder Peter Hardt (b. 1946) during his extensive travels in Asia, the first of which occurred during a formative world tour in 1973. Throughout his storied career, Peter Kienzle-Hardt organized countless exhibitions and participated in major international art fairs. He made many important contacts during this time and eventually met the Kienzle siblings, who shared his passion for Asian art and culture. A strong bond and deep friendship developed, ultimately leading to the creation of the Museum für Asiatische Kunst decades later in 2014. While the museum’s permanent exhibition predominantly comprised pieces from the Kienzle Family Collection, Peter Kienzle-Hardt supplemented it with objects from his own collection. Before his death in 2019, Horst Kienzle bequeathed his entire property to Peter and legally adopted him as his son, who has been using the name Peter Kienzle-Hardt ever since.
