CHINE, DYNASTIE QING, MARQUES À SIX CARACTÈRES INCISÉES DANS UN CARTOUCHE RECTANGULAIRE ET ÉPOQUE QIANLONG (1736-1795)

Les deux cerfs sont modelés au naturel, debout sur leurs quatre pattes. Tandis que l'un semble à l'arrêt, l'autre a sa patte droite avant étendue vers l'avant et sa patte gauche avant ramenée sous le corps donnant une impression de mouvement. Leur corps, leur cou et la naissance de leurs pattes sont ornés d'une multitude de fleurs de prunus incisées. Leurs yeux ronds grand ouverts et leurs oreilles légèrement inclinées en arrière animent leur gueule. Ils sont tous deux dotés de bois à plusieurs branches rehaussés par un travail de ciselure. Ils portent sur leur poitrail une marque Qianlong incisée à six caractères dans un cartouche.

Hauteurs : 129 cm et 132 cm (50 3⁄4 in. and 52 in.), socles en bois





Provenance

Acquired in France by the grandfather of the present owner before 1930, thence by descent in the family.
