拍品描述: Please not that we strongly oppose the illegal trade in rhinoceros horn products. This set was legally acquired and can, according to CITES regulations, be legally traded. Exportation of this piece outside of the EU is prohibited by Cites regulation. The piece comes with a hand-written provenance description, and the original photo of the owner with the statue in Belgian Congo. Dim.: 13,4 x 18,2 cm Weight: 1,061 kg Provenance: Acquired in Belgian Congo, before 1936, when it was brought to Belgium by a family member of the present owner. Accompanied by a photograph made in Kilo, Congo, ca. 1930. The monk Budai, also known as the Laughing Buddha, is an incarnation of the Bodhisattva Maitreya, the Buddha predicted to succeed Gautama Buddha in the future. Typically depicted with a joyful expression and wearing loose fitting robes to reveal his plump stomach seated representing contentment and abundance, Budai is also associated with the protection of children and is often shown with small children playfully climbing on his belly or back. Figural carvings from rhinoceros horn are rare but the most common depictions include Manjusri and Budai. Another carving of Budai formerly in the Ruth Dreyfus and Arthur M. Sackler collections is illustrated by Thomas Fok, Connoisseurship of Rhinoceros Horn Carving in China, Hong Kong, 1999, p. 117 no.69, and again by J. Chapman, The Art of Rhinoceros Horn Carving in China, Hong Kong, 1999, no. 327 and was sold at Christie's New York, 1 December 1994, lot 28.

Chapman, The Art of Rhinoceros Horn Carving in China, Hong Kong, 1999, no. 327, was sold at Sotheby's Hong Kong, 23 October 2005, lot 34. A rhinoceros horn carving of Budai attributed to the late Ming dynasty but lacking a reign mark in the Palace Museum, Beijing is illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum - Bamboo, Wood, Ivory and Rhinoceros Horn Carvings, Shanghai, 2001, no. 138; and another in the Shanghai Museum, is illustrated in Shanghai bowuguan Jikan, vol. 6, 1992, fig. 28.
