Description

A GROUP OF TWO SILVER REPOUSSé AMULET PENDANTS AND A PILGRIMAGE PLAQUE, 19TH-EARLY 20TH CENTURY
This lot is a museum deaccession and is therefore offered without reserve

India (the plaque) and Nepal (the pendants). (3)

The plaque of arched form, finely worked to depict a four-armed crowned deity seated in ardha padmasana on a lotus base while holding a trident, sword, damaru, and small bowl, wearing a long dhoti with fanning central fold, the serene face with almond-shaped eyes and smiling lips, all below a canopy and surrounded by leaves, against a ring-punched ground, and framed by a foliate arch.

The pendants of square form. One depicting Vishnu standing in samabhanga, with two hands lowered clasping a lotus and conch, and two raised holding a disk and mace, dressed in a long dhoti and adorned with a billowing garland. The other depicting Durga Mahishasuramardini, the fierce goddess with eighteen arms, standing in alidhasana upon a small lion and slaying the demon as he emerges from the decapitated body of a buffalo, the principal hands in dharmachakra mudra while the secondary arms radiate, some holding attributes including a sword, damaru, and sula (lance), each atop a lotus pedestal and backed by a foliate mandorla, surrounded by scrolling leaves, and set with a pair of loops for suspension at the top.

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.
Condition: Very good condition with old wear, traces of use, manufacturing irregularities, minuscule nicks, small surface scratches, few dents, expected warping and tarnish.
