拍品描述
Expert's note: This type of decoration, featuring floral designs in low relief and a pair of bud handles, is quintessential of Mughal craftsmanship dating from around 1650-1750.India. The thin, rounded sides crisply carved to the exterior with a scroll of blossoming lotus between bands of stylized leaves at the mouth rim and above the foot, and set with a pair of flat, petal-shaped tab handles suspending tight pendent buds. The translucent stone is of a pale celadon color with one russet vein and two small brown spots and icy white inclusions. Provenance: Nagel Auctions, Stuttgart (according to label), circa 2000. The private collection of Alan and Simone Hartman, New York, acquired from the above. The base with an old label from the Hartmans inscribed with Alan Hartman's dating 'XVIII' and an inventory number 'AJ 9110'. Alan Hartman (1930-2023) was an influential American art dealer, who took over his parents' antique business in Manhattan and established the legendary Rare Art Gallery on Madison Avenue, with further locations in Dallas and Palm Beach. His wife Simone (nee Horowitz) already served as assistant manager of the New York gallery before the couple married in 1975, and together they built a renowned collection for over half a century and became noted art patrons, enriching the collections of important museums including the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (which opened the Alan and Simone Hartman Galleries in 2013) as well as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Brooklyn Museum in New York. Alan Hartman has been described as the greatest antiques dealer of our generation, and was widely recognized as a world authority in Chinese jade, bronzes, and Asian works of art. Condition: Very good condition with minor old wear, few microscopic nicks, and the stone with natural fissures and inclusions.Weight: 275 g Dimensions: Length 17.6 cmThe Mughal Empire was profoundly influenced by the rich artistic and cultural traditions of Persia and Central Asia, regions that also held jade in high regard. This reverence for jade seamlessly integrated into Mughal court art and craftsmanship. The Mughal emperors, who were descendants of Timur and Genghis Khan, inherited a deep appreciation for luxury and opulence from their Persian and Central Asian predecessors, and jade became one of the most coveted materials in their courts.Mughal jade vessels are renowned for their exceptionally thinly carved walls and naturalistic motifs. Such finely carved pieces from Mughal India, Xinjiang, and Mongolia are understood to have been introduced to the Imperial Court during the Qianlong reign period as tribute ware. It appears that the first documented piece arrived in 1758, and further pieces were presented to the Imperial Court from 1760 onwards, once Xinjiang was secured under the Qing administrative control.The Qianlong emperor greatly admired the fine quality of the Mughal jade workmanship, and wrote poems praising the Mughal pieces in his collection, describing them as 'thin as paper'. Chinese carvers strove to imitate the Mughal style, and arguably even surpassed the Mughal carvers in technical fineness of their carving. The thinness of the walls and simplicity of the carving in the Mughal style are particularly well suited to reveal the beauty of the jade stone itself. Indeed the apparent thinness is often as much the effect of the delicate translucency of the stone as it is a reflection of the carver's masterful skill.Auction result comparison:Type: Near identicalAuction: Christie's New York, 18 September 2003, lot 108Price: USD 7,767 or approx.
