拍品描述
A BLACK POTTERY AMPHORA WITH APPLIED BRONZE BOSSES, LIFAN, HAN DYNASTYChina, Sichuan, 202 BC-220 AD. Heavily potted, the lozenge-form mouth rim tapering to form two wide strap handles above the neck with a finely incised band running parallel. The ovoid body with spiral designs. Applied overall with conical copper bosses showing beaded decoration.Provenance: From the private collection of Naomi Lindstrom, California. Naomi Lindstrom (1924-2014) was one of the foremost bead collectors of the 20th century and a longtime Pan Am flight attendant whose routes took her throughout Europe, Hong Kong, India, South America, and East Asia. A passionate and respected scholar of ancient beads, she lectured in London and New York, exhibited at the San Francisco Museum of Craft, and served for over twenty-five years as a docent at the San Francisco Asian Art Museum. She spent six months with the Lowell Thomas Foundation assisting Tibetan refugees in India alongside the Dalai Lama's siblings, during which time she acquired coral beads directly from refugees and helped them secure additional buyers. Lindstrom later joined the Textile Arts Board of the M.H. de Young Museum and the Textile Arts Council in San Francisco, and donated rare textiles to both the Asian Art Museum and the de Young while lecturing widely on Asian and Indonesian textiles.Condition: Very good condition with expected wear, few light nicks and shallow surface scratches. The stoneware with areas of sintering and calcification indicating extended burial. Some losses. The bosses with traces of wear and corrosion, as well as malachite-green and copper-red encrustations. Minor touchups, all consistent with urns of this distinct corpus.Weight: 904 g Dimensions: Height 16.5 cmThis type of black earthenware amphora was produced from the Warring States period and throughout the Han dynasty. The surface of the vessel has been shaped with tools and then burnished. This process of manufacture gives the jar its attractively rugged, yet carefully detailed and distinctive characteristics. The surface of the body is an amalgamation of complex curves with various convex and concave shapes. As noted by Regina Krahl in Yuegutang, A Collection of Chinese Ceramics in Berlin, 2000, page 55, amphorae of this distinct type are characteristic products of the Western Sichuan province where they were made by non-Chinese peoples. Hence, this type of vessel is known as Lifan, named after the area of Sichuan province in the far west of China, in which such jars have been found.There are obvious stylistic similarities between these Lifan vessels and objects from much earlier periods such as the Neolithic cultures of Machang (c. 3000-2000 BC) and Xindian (c. 1500-1000 BC). Similar black ware food containers with two handles have also been unearthed in Dena County, Yunan, an area that was the home of the southwestern Yi tribe during the Spring and Autumn period.Literature comparison: Compare a closely related Lifan amphora with applied bronze bosses, dated to the Western Han dynasty, previously exhibited in the Portland Art Museum.Auction result comparison: Type: Near-identical Auction: Galerie Zacke, Vienna, 1 March 2024, lot 148 Price: EUR 5,850 or approx. EUR 6,200 adjusted for inflation at the time of writing : A black pottery amphora with applied copper bosses, lifan, Han dynasty Expert remark: Compare the identical form and décor with applied bronze bosses. Note the similar size (18.2 cm).
