Description

A LARGE LACQUERED WOOD NEWAR WINDOW AND FRAME, 18TH-19TH CENTURY

Nepal. The beaded window with a scalloped arch framed by bands of flames and leafy tendrils, flanked by two columns with rows of ornate petals, and each corner with a flange similarly decorated with vines, blossoms, and decorative borders.

Provenance: The Kienzle Family Collection, Stuttgart, Germany. Acquired between 1950 and 1985 by siblings Else (1912-2006), Reinhold (1917-2008), and Dr. Horst Kienzle (1924-2019), during their extensive travels in Asia. Subsequently inherited by Dr. Horst Kienzle and bequeathed to the Museum für Asiatische Kunst, Radevormwald, Germany. Released through museum deaccession in 2024. The Kienzle siblings were avid travelers and passionate collectors of Asian and Islamic art. During their travels, the Kienzle’s sought out and explored temples, monasteries, and markets, always trying to find the best pieces wherever they went, investing large sums of money and forging lasting relationships to ensure they could acquire them. Their fervor and success in this pursuit is not only demonstrated by their collection but further recorded in correspondences between Horst Kienzle and several noted dignitaries, businesses and individuals in Nepal and Ladakh. Their collection had gained renown by the 1970s, but the Kienzle’s stopped acquiring new pieces around 1985. Almost thirty years later, the collection was moved to the Museum für Asiatische Kunst, Radevormwald, opened by Peter Hardt in 2014. Before his death in 2019, Horst Kienzle bequeathed his entire property to Peter Hardt and legally adopted him as his son, who has been using the name Peter Kienzle-Hardt ever since.
Condition: Good condition with minor wear, natural imperfections including expected age cracks and splits as well as signs of insect activity. Signs of weathering, minor losses to exposed areas, remnants of varnish.

Dimensions: Size 195.5 x 148 x 13 cm

Traditional Newar houses are usually built of brick with four stories and decorated with elaborate windows which differ according to their function. Usually the lintel, sill, and jamb are ornamented with figures of deities, mythical beings, dragons, peacocks, auspicious jars, and other decorative elements. The level of design and carving of the Newar window reached its peak in the mid-18th century. These types of windows can be found on palaces, private residences, and sacred buildings.
