Condition: Sehr gut. Original hardcover with dust jacket, 208 pages, 130 colour photos, very good condition. Excellent catalogue of an exhibition at the Ashmolean Museum Oxford from 6 October to 30 December 1999 of a most remarkable collection of scultpures from Tibet. The collection by an unnamed private collector (a roman-cath…olic American with Irish roots, as he describes himself, domiciled probably at Hong Kong). The collection had some absolutely stunning pieces, i.a. a pivotal silver statue of Milarepa (sold in March 2023 for USD 2,1 m.) or a remarkable portrait of a quite grumpy looking teacher. Often quite small, many of the sculptures are of highest quality. Part of this collection has been sold since at least 2017 through auctions. So this book is the only complete documentation of it. Quite uncommon. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 1400.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. The scholarly catalogue of the Nyingjei Lam collection, one of the most important private collections of Tibetan metal sculpture in the world. Written by David Weldon (a leading conservator and expert on casting techniques) and Jane Casey Singer, thi…s volume is unique for its technical focus. It does not just describe the iconography; it analyzes the alloy composition, gilding techniques, and cold-gold face painting that distinguish "pure" Tibetan works from those made by Newari or Kashmiri craftsmen. Key Features: The "Dark Period": Sheds light on the 11th-13th centuries, a period often poorly understood in Tibetan art history. Portrait Bronzes: Includes rare inscribed statues of early Lamas and Kagyu hierarchs that are crucial for dating other works. Technical Analysis: Weldon's essays on how to identify modern fakes vs. ancient repairs are essential reading for any serious collector. Large Quarto (30 cm). 208 pages. Profusely illustrated in color. Very good condition. Tight, clean and unmarked interior, slight fading on spine of dustjacket.
