Figure of Guandi, Kangxi Period (1662-1722)
|
|
Berwald Oriental Art will be holding an exhibit of recent acquisitions at its gallery. The
show will
encompass a wide range both chronologically from the Han dynasty to the 18th century and
in terms of
material with pottery, porcelain, stone, lacquer, cloisonné and jade. Highlights include from the
Han
dynasty a large, seated mastiff and a lively balladeer, a remarkable pair of Tang dynasty pottery
warriors vibrantly painted with lavish gilt remains, a tall, dynamic Tang figure of an archer also with
rich
remains of varying pigments. From later periods there is a superb mark and period monochrome Wanli
ewer, some very fine Transitional and Kangxi period underglaze blue and white, particularly a superb
and large jardinière as well as some excellent famille verte pieces; among the best are a near
translucent
ovoid lantern and a large baluster jar and cover decorated with alternating panels of figures and
landscapes. Sculpture from varying periods will also be represented, among which is a particularly
good Tang Limestone Maiterya Buddha from an old New York Collection. Works of Art will also be
included.
In addition, we are very pleased to announce that we are expanding our gallery which will now include
both the 19th and 20th floors of our current address. The additional space
will allow us to serve our
clients better as well as provide further space to display our inventory. We look forward to welcoming
everyone to our newly enhanced showrooms.
The Spring Exhibition will open on March 17th and run through March 29th, 2008.
Our gallery hours
are Monday through Friday 10-6 and Saturdays 11-5. For further information please contact Cynthia
Volk at the gallery at either 212.319.1519 or info@berwald-oriental.com.
