Lot details

China. Ink and watercolor on silk. Depicting two deer, one resting below a rose bush, the other raising his head towards two birds perched on a gnarly branch. The background with a waterfall and crashing waves. Mounted to a blue brocade frame with wan symbols.

Provenance: From the private collection of Michael B. Weisbrod, New York, USA. Michael B. Weisbrod is a noted scholar of Chinese art, who has published extensively on the subject over a time span of more than 50 years. In 1972, Michael joined his father Dr. Gerald Weisbrod’s Asian art gallery in Toronto, Canada. The father-and-son team opened their New York location on Madison Avenue in 1977, and during the next 45 years the gallery held a significant number of exhibitions, selling to museums and private collectors across the globe, eventually adding further locations in Shanghai and Hong Kong.
Condition: The painting is in good original condition, commensurate with age, and still presenting well. Minor wear, few creases, small tears and losses, some abrasions, staining and browning, but no restorations or touch-ups whatsoever. The colors are still quite fresh. The brocade mount with losses and tears.

Dimensions: Image size 177.5 x 100.5 cm, Size incl. mounting 224.3 x 117 cm

In Chinese culture, the deer symbolized longevity, but can also have wealth and prosperity connotations to it. The Chinese word for deer is also a homonym for lu, which means good income. The animal is generally associated with Shoulao, the god of longevity.
