STANDING GAZELLE BUCK. Lacquer technique, real antlers. Burma/ Myanmar, pressum. 19th to last cent. Height 143 cm, Length 117 cm
This extremely rare, almost life-size deer, is technically, as well as artistically an ourstanding work! The very appealing liveliness was induced to a convincing and attractive standard. Naturalism in a realistic sense is only partly present – the primary interest was focused towards depicting the “beingâ€, whereby attention to real details was subordinated. From the former collection of the Baroness Vera Krassilnikoff-Kreps
