Maske, Kupferbronze, Steine, H 15, min.besch., Tibet

Tibet.- Selections from the Perfection of Wisdom in a Hundred Thousand Lines, manuscript in Tibetan on mulberry paper, c.216 leaves, chapters 38, 40, 45 & 47, Tibetan script in silver ink, text area black and polished by rice powder for preservation purposes (polish often spilling over onto frame portion of leaves), lacking title page, some worming, some soiling or staining, leaves loose, housed in a modern cloth drop-back box, each leaf c.120 x 450mm., [Ladakh], [16th century].  *** A collection of passages from the Perfection of Wisdom, each section on average from 10 to 20 leaves. There is reason to believe that this manuscript has not been opened for a long time, since several of its pages are firmly joined together. The writing is in silver ink, the calligraphy with the ‘rough and ready’ appearance found in manuscripts from Ladakh. The state of conservation and medley of pages suggest that the manuscript never belonged to a well-organised monastic library, but was kept in private hands for occasional consultation or purposes of worship on the family altar. 

Asia.- Tassin (Jean-Baptiste Athanase) Map of Eastern Asia, comprising China, parts of Tibet and Mongolia, Bootan, Assam, Burma and Eastern Bengal with Anam, Cambodia, Siam, Laos, the Malay Peninsula and the Indian archipelago, lithograph with fine hand-colouring, sheet 1050 x 735 mm (41 1/4 x 28 7/8 in), dissected and mounted on linen, minor surface dirt and browning, folding with green coloured endpapers, in green slipcase with publisher's printed label to upper cover, worn, 4to, Calcutta, 1840. *** Scarce map, published in Calcutta. We cannot trace another example at auction. Tassin joined a voyage to East Asia as a naturalist, but his ship was wrecked in the Malay Archipelago, leaving Tassin impoverished in Singapore. He is recorded being in Calcutta by 1828, where he set up his own printing press, the Oriental Lithographic Press, which he ran until 1842 to great success.
