19TH C. CHINESE WOOD ACUPUNCTURE
19TH C. CHINESE WOOD ACUPUNCTURE TEACHING MODEL**Originally Listed At $2500**
East Asia, China, ca. 1860 to 1880 CE. A sizeable, carved wooden male model with black-painted inscriptions used to teach acupuncture in China. The standing figure is marked with various acupuncture holes representing pressure points where needles should be placed on the human body as well as the meridians through which the qi (chi) or energy in the body flows. It is necessary for qi to flow freely along the body's channels or meridians in order to ensure good health. Acupuncture was developed in China and spread throughout East Asia, especially Korea and Japan, centuries before Europeans learned of the practice. Dutch physician Willem ten Rhijne, who studied acupuncture in Japan for two years, wrote "De Acupunctura," the first European text on the subject published in 1683. It was not until 1823 that British surgeon James Morss Churchill wrote "A Treatise on Acupuncturation," the first English text on acupuncture. Size: 5.7" L x 8.375" W x 31.375" H (14.5 cm x 21.3 cm x 79.7 cm); 32.5" H (82.6 cm) on included custom stand.
According ot the Wood Library Museum of Anesthesiology, "The practice of acupuncture is based on the ancient Chinese concept of yin yang balance. Yin and yang represent the interdependent opposites that exist in everything, and for good health the two must be in balance. According to traditional Chinese Medicine, a metaphysical energy called "qi", or “chi”, is believed to circulate throughout the body along invisible channels called meridians. It is thought that stagnation or problems with the flow of "qi" causes a yin yang imbalance. To restore that balance, the skin is punctured with very fine needles at acupoints. Most acupoints are found along the body’s twelve meridians. Practitioners of acupuncture use it to relieve pain and to treat a variety of health conditions."

OLMEC JADE DUCK PENDANT W/ HUMAN
OLMEC JADE DUCK PENDANT W/ HUMAN FACEPre-Columbian, southern Mexico to Guatemala, Olmec, ca. 1200 to 600 BCE. An interesting pendant of a petite size depicting a human face on one side and a minimalist duck visage on the other, all hand-carved from mottled, forest green omphacite jade with light green and beige inclusions. The obverse of the slender pendant features an Olmec countenance with characteristic features such as wide-set, almond-shaped eyes, a broad nose flanked by deep nasolabial folds, puffy lips, and rounded cheeks. The verso bears a bulbous, conical duck beak with a pair of slit-form nostrils and an incised groove delineating the top of the beak from the bottom. When viewed at the correct angle, the eyes of the human face are seen as the eyes of the duck's face. A biconically drilled suspension hole situated behind the pendant enables this to be worn as an attractive and ancient accessory! Size: 2.44" L x 0.98" W (6.2 cm x 2.5 cm)

PORTRAIT OF A FEMALE DIGNITARY
PORTRAIT OF A FEMALE DIGNITARY (CONTINENTAL SCHOOL, EAR...PORTRAIT OF A FEMALE DIGNITARY (CONTINENTAL SCHOOL, EARLY 17TH CENTURY) CIRCLE OF FRANS POURBUS THE YOUNGER
Oil on canvas, unsigned. Dated 1615 when the sitter was 28 years old, as indicated by the Latin inscription, the coats of arms probably those of Halsingland, Sweden. The subject in red dress with white collar meticulously adorned with lace; her right hand held to her chest holding a small pink carnation, a beribboned rosary spilling over a bible stationed at her right side, her left hand holding her gloves down at her side. Fine gold jewelry adorns her hands and a large, jeweled pendant hangs at her chest. The later ebonized, gothic style frame with the gilded date 1628 (probably a misinterpretation of the Roman numeral 28).
The sitter bearing resemblance to Constance of Austria who gave birth in January of 1616. Constance was a daughter of Charles II of Austria and Maria Anna of Bavaria. Her paternal grandparents were Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor and Anna of Bohemia and Hungary (1503–1547). Anne was the only daughter of King Vladislaus II of Bohemia and Hungary and his wife Anne de Foix. Her maternal grandparents were Albert V, Duke of Bavaria and Anne Habsburg of Austria. Constance was also a younger sister of Ferdinand II, Holy Roman Emperor, Margaret of Austria, Leopold V of Austria and Anna of Austria. Her older sister Anna was the first wife of King Sigismund III Vasa, King of Sweden and Poland. After her sisters death Constance and Sigismund were married on December 11, 1605.
The final photo of the lot is a documented portrait painting of a young teenage Constance by Frans Pourbus the Younger. The pose, articles, and clothing bear a close resemblance.
