The present lot relates to the monumental blue and white alter pieces famously created under the direction of Tang Ying of which at least six sets were made, mostly dedicated to temples in Beijing. Lam (1998) compiles a table of such pieces which were created between 1740 and 1741 all around 64cm H. The present piece, smaller in scale and lacking a temple dedication may have been an earlier trial piece. Credibility is added to this theory by the existence of lamp stand of similarly small scale (10cm H) and made for personal use being inscribed for Tang Ying’s birthday of the 5th day of the 5th month of 1734. The piece is currently in the collection of the Shanghai Museum. (Lu, 1996, Qingdai qinghua ciqi jiansheng [Connoisseurship of Blue and White Porcelain of the Qing Dynasty] p 65 no 76). Another vase of the same size but slightly different decoration from the present lot is illustrated as Eldon Worrall, Precious Vessels: 2000 Years of Chinese Pottery, 1980, no 105. The piece was from the collection of Sir Charles Bell and was listed as having been acquired in Tibet.

According to analysis of similar works the present painting may be considered brimming with erotic subtext. In Beauty Revealed: Images of Women in Qing Dynasty Chinese Painting, 2013, James Cahill suggests that the direct gaze of a female subject and translucent clothing are both commonly used to suggest sexual availability. Furthermore, according to him, a lady’s hand, viewed through a fan, is a symbol of the female genitalia. The finger citron, often present in paintings of women in this genre and which the human hand visually echoes, has been more widely mooted as anatomically symbolic in this regard (for example by Philip Rawson, Erotic Art of the East: the Sexual Theme in Oriental Painting and Sculpture, 1968, fig 100).

Painted in ink, colour, gofun and gold on silk, depicting the Amida with twenty-five Bodhisattvas descending with the clouds, mounted as a hanging scroll, 129.5 x 64cm. Provenance: The collection of Brian Morgan (1930 – 2018), former director of Bluett and Sons, Oriental Art. £2,000 – 3,000 絹本著色阿弥陀二十五菩薩来迎図 Depictions of Amida (the Buddha of infinite light) and the Pure Land, are popular Buddhist images in Japan, and until the twelfth century, Amida was usually represented seated. However during the Kamakura period (1185 – 1333), the concept of raigo (the welcoming descent) flourished and Amida became more approachable to people, depicted standing, and in action, coming down from his ‘Pure Land’ to fetch his devotees. Jyodokyo (the Pure Land Buddhism) permeated the Japanese soil during the Kamakura period, after a long war between two strong clans (the Genpei war), which resulted in a shift of power from the Emperor to Shogun (the samurai lord). People were anxious, and were seeking salvation; they wanted to be reborn in a utopia where they were free from all the sufferings in this world. In this painting, Amida is standing on a lotus pedestal in the centre, accompanied by heavenly dancers and musicians, descending on the clouds from the top left. His attendant, Kannon (Guanyin) at the front, is kneeling to offer the lotus throne on which the deceased will be transported back to the Pure Land. Numerous lotus petals and small deities are flying around them. Another example of the raigo-zu painting with a similar composition is in the Shojuraigo-ji temple at Hiei, which is illustrated in Joji Okazaki, Jyodokyo-ga, Nihon no Bijutsu series, no 43, pl 80. *See inside front cover for information regarding fees
