A CARVED WOOD PANEL WITH UGRACHANDI, CHAMUNDA AND KUMARI, 16TH-18TH CENTURY
This lot is a museum deaccession and is therefore offered without reserve

Nepal. Ugrachandi finely carved to the left in her fearful manifestation with eight arms holding accoutrements, next to her Chamunda standing above a prostrate figure, Kumari supported on a mythical beast and holding a sword in her raised right hand, and a smaller deity. The three goddesses dressed in dhotis with garlands of skulls around their waist. All backed by flaming aureoles and standing atop a lotus throne.

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.
Labels: Galerie Hardt, inscribed ‘Tempelfries, Holz geschnitzt, Nepal 16./17. Jh.‘, the back ‘Reg.:98209, H:30/B:57/T:10 cm‘ and priced at EUR 12,750.
Condition: Good condition with old wear and natural imperfections including minor age cracks and signs of insect activity, obvious losses, small chips, extensive remnants of pigment, old repairs mostly to feet with remnants of adhesive. The pigments have been renewed over time and there seem to be several layers, as expected.
