Pair of royal black lacquer prunk stools with gold landscape, China, 18th c., voluminous wooden corpus set in black lacquer consisting of etagated octagonal seat and inwardly rolled leg rests, seats each painted with exquisite lakescapes in gold color, their tree-covered headlands housing architectures and scholars, the view extends over the waters to the distant mountains, The view stretches over the waters to the distant mountains, where one senses the vibrato of the Li Guo style, and thus the ”Landscape in Gold” is only comparable to the gold painting of the Korean master painter Yi Jing (1581-1674), who knew how to combine skillful wash with precise contour lines.The sides show the repertoire of the highest Chinese decorative painting of the 18th century such as swastika borders, swirling meanders and treasure flower tendrils with numerous flower medallions, each 48x43x43cm
