拍品描述
Expert's note:Yang Guifei (719-756), also known as Yang Yuhuan, was one of the Four Beauties of ancient China and the beloved consort of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang dynasty during his later years. During the An Lushan Rebellion, as the emperor and his entourage fled from the capital Chang'an toward Chengdu, the imperial guards demanded that Yang be put to death, blaming the uprising on her cousin Yang Guozhong and the rest of her family. The emperor ultimately capitulated and reluctantly ordered his attendant Gao Lishi to supervise her forced suicide. The Song of Everlasting Regret, a narrative poem by Bai Juyi (772-846), was inspired by the tragic love story between Xuanzong and Lady Yang and recounts the events surrounding her death.China. Ink and watercolors on paper. Finely painted featuring two ladies in delicate attire, rendered with graceful elegance. The taller woman, Yang Guifei, is draped in a transparent red robe adorned with intricate floral patterns partly revealing her chest, wearing cloud-form slippers, and holding a blue fan while she gazes back with a gentle smile towards two butterflies. She is accompanied by her attendant, dressed in a white and purple robe with embroidered details and a brown collar, and carrying a tray with a small flower arrangement.Provenance: Collection of Fanny and Bernard Watel, Lausanne, Switzerland, and thence by descent to the present owner.
