拍品描述
Ink, watercolors, gouache, and gold paint on silk. Finely painted, seated in dhyanasana atop a tiered lotus throne with a festooned canopy overhead, his vehicle the lion at the foot of the pedestal, the hands lowered in dhyanamudra above his lap holding an ornate vase. The deity's long blue tresses secured with a paneled tiara depicting the Five Directional Buddhas, the body adorned with luxuriant jewelry and patterned robes, backed by a mandorla and halo surrounded by thick scrolling clouds. Provenance: From a noted European private collection, acquired in the Belgian trade several years ago.Condition: Overall good condition with wear, soiling, creasing with associated minor tears. Repairs and touchups to the chin and a small section at the top edge.Dimensions: Image size 139 x 67.6 cm, Size incl. frame 160 x 87 cmMounted and framed behind glass.The present image is a symbolic representation placed on a wall during Buddhist rituals. From the Buddhist perspective, paintings and calligraphy belong to Silpakarma-vidya, one of the five types of knowledge and wisdom. Over time monks and laymen painted and practiced calligraphy and Buddhist-themed works became more sophisticated during the Song and Yuan dynasties. By the early Ming dynasty, votive paintings, such as the present example, were used within private chapels and side pavilions of major temple monasteries.As explained in Caroline Gyss-Vermandes' pioneering article about the sets of Shuilu (Water and Land) paintings obtained by Paul Pelliot from ''a library in the Imperial Palace'' and now in the Musee Guimet (Demons et Merveilles: vision de la nature dans une peinture liturgique du XVe siecle, Arts Asiatiques 43, 1988, pages 106-122), such paintings were not objects of worship, but rather illustrations of the pantheon invoked in the Water and Land rituals, hung up in a prescribed order on the left and right walls of the sanctuary, while the main deities, in a larger size, were hung slightly higher on the north wall.Literature comparison:Compare a related earlier painting of Manjushri, Tangut State of Xi-Xia, 13th-14th century, in the State Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg.Auction result comparison: Type: RelatedAuction: Sotheby's New York, 18 March 2014, lot 401Price: USD 43,750 or approx.
