收藏于“黄金时代”,即20世纪前半期的这组中国镜画、英国家具等,让James先生与Horlick夫人位于苏格兰西部群岛的家熠熠生辉。这些色泽艳丽、式样各异的油画源自18世纪,在英国上好家具的陪衬下更显完美无暇,James先生对中国艺术风格的热情可见一斑。
与家具一起拍卖的还有中国风格的可翻转镜画,这将引发未来对这些罕见油画的新一轮收藏热。
日期/时间:第一场:07年6月5日(星期二),上午10:30
地点:伦敦,新庞德大街。
Formed in the 'golden era' of collecting in the first half of the 20th century, this extraordinary collection of mirror paintings and English furniture graced Achamore House, Gigha, the home of Sir James and Lady Horlick in the Scottish Western Isles.
His passion for Chinoiserie is clearly illustrated in these beautifully coloured and wonderfully varied paintings complemented by fine English furniture from the 18th century.
Along with the furniture this is one of the largest collections of reverse mirror paintings and Chinoiserie to appear on the market and will enable a future generation of collectors to enjoy the beauty of these rare paintings.
