Soft cover. Zustand: New. 88 pages : illustrations (chiefly colour) ; 29 cm. At his best, George Chinnery was a splendid artist. For a living he painted portraits of swaggering lieutenants, hoary governors and their beribboned wives, American sea-captains, and Chinese and Parsi merchants. George Chinnery immersed himself in thes…e Asian cultures and his drawings and watercolours of local people and their daily activities are regarded by many as his most compelling work: crowded market scenes, fishermen landing on the beach, blacksmiths working at their bellows, gamblers playing in the street, boat-people making makeshift shelters, junks at anchor on a calm evening. This exhibition, the first of Chinnery's work in London for over 50 years, comprises some 100 works showing Chinnery's range, from oils and watercolours to landscapes and portraits, with a special emphasis on his vivid and deceptively simple watercolours, and his fluent drawings of the people going about their everyday lives. Also included are a group of his self-portraits, presenting 'the ugliest man on the China coast', as he regarded himself, at varying ages and in contrasting states of mind. Over 100 paintings and drawings are reproduced in outstanding quality and show his work to the best advantage. The book also places his work in context and includes works by his contemporaries.

In den WarenkorbOval ca. 52 x 40 mm. In Messingrahmen, verglast. Als der englische Maler George Chinnery (1774 - 1852) 26 Jahre alt wurde, verließ er Europa, um nie wieder in seine Heimat zurückzukehren. Warum er diesen Schritt unternahm, ist unklar. Geboren 1774 in London, wuchs er in gutbürgerlichen Verhältnissen auf und studierte an der Roya…l Academy. Er distanzierte sich jedoch von seiner Familie und zog nach Dublin. Dort verbuchte er seinen ersten Erfolge als Künstler und sein Einkommen erlaubte es zu heiraten. Obwohl das junge Paar schnell zwei Kinder bekam, sollte die Verbindung mit seiner Frau Marianne nur zwei Jahre halten. George Chinnery ließ Frau und Kinder in Irland zurück und zog wieder ins heimatliche London. Auch hier hielt er es nicht lange aus. Nach nur einem Jahr segelte an Bord eines Handelsseglers zu den britische Kolonien in Indien. Er ließ sich in Kalkutta nieder und etablierte sich schnell in der der englischen Communitiy. Sein Geld verdiente er als Portrait-Maler. Nach zwei Jahrzehnten in Indien zog Chinnery nach Macao im Süden Chinas. Hier schien George Chinnery endgültig zur Ruhe zu kommen und er blieb bis zu seinem Tod im Jahr 1852.

In den WarenkorbPainting. Zustand: Good + overall. An early gouache portrait of Houqua, considered the richest man in the world in the 1830s. 'This gouache portrait of Howqua, exists in several versions and sizes, from full-length to head and shoulders . some in oils and others in gouache. They seem to have had their origin in a group of portra…its executed by Chinnery, the portrait of Howqua, was probably shipped to England on January 31st 1830. Following and adapting Chinnery's prototypes, Lamqua must have done a brisk business in such portraits. In particular, the distinctive features of Howqua domed forehead, hollow cheeks, wispy beard gained an almost iconic status, the acceptable face, as it were, of the China trade.' (P. Conner, 'Lamqua Western and Chinese Painter', Arts of Asia, March-April 1899, p.54). This portrait has elements of several images of Houqua. The basic structure is based on the portrait held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the style of George Chinnery. In that portrait, Houqua sits on a red banquette, looking straight at the painter, his legs crossed, wearing a dark blue robe with white cuffs, a central elaborate panel of embroidery at his chest and wide pants decorated with diagonal strips of blue, green and red. He also wears two or three strings of beads, his red domed hat to the left, a wooden doorway framework and an open space behind with a sky and a Chinese red-tasseled lantern hanging above him to the right. There is also a silver colored metal object at the left of his foot and a wooden footstool. In this portrait, the face is of an older Houqua, appearing similar to the Tinqua "Portrait of Houqua" portrait on ivory also at the Metropolitan. This image varies from that format, most strikingly on the intricate dragon coat pattern which we have not been able to trace in any other variant of this portrait. Another variation is the harbor background found in many examples, which has been blocked by a wall extending from the pillar on the right. Howqua, the representative of the thirteen factories among the Guangzhou merchants. The subject of this portrait is probably Wu Bingjian (1769-1843), the richest man on earth during the Jiaqing and Daoguang periods, or possibly his fifth son, Wu Shaorong (1833-1856). Howqua Wu Bingjian, had risen to become the most senior of the hong merchants in Canton, one of a select few permitted to trade in silk and porcelain with foreigners. The word hong (?) refers to both a type of building and a Chinese merchant intermediary within the Canton system of trade. Howqua's personal wealth was estimated to be around US $26 million by 1834. He contributed a third of the US $3 million that China's Qing dynasty was required to pay in reparations to the British after the 1842 Treaty of Nanking that ended the First Opium War. He had close ties with powerful contemporaries such as James Matheson, William Jardine, Samuel Russell and Abiel Abbot Low. Gouache portrait on paper, 20 1/4 x 14". There are a number of expertly repaired cracks that are barely visible as well as a matching Chinese pattern strip of paper applied to the vacant top left corner. This portrait was most recently featured on the cover of March 2026 issue of Antiques Weekly newspaper.
