A Chinese mid 18th century Laquered Coromandel screen

About the Item

A monumentally scaled and most important Chinese mid 18th century Laquered Coromandel screen. This finely detailed ten panel screen, with its original tempera paint, showcases a collection of continuous scenes depicting a landscape with pagodas, pavilions, a court of noblemen, women, and musicians. Each panel displays tones of rose, green, cafe brown, and gold on a dark rose ground within a border of wandering mischievous dragons and Greek key designs. The rear is tastefully decorated in the center with Chinese calligraphy relating to the story of the front with a border of flowers in vases, animals, and various figures. This wonderful screen was formerly in the Collections of Viscount Furness and Lady Musker, as well as being sold by Mallet Antiques on November 22, 1968.
