18th century
The mountain crisply worked in high relief with rugged, overhanging cliffs and a gnarled pine trees, their needles rendered with exceptional delicacy, winding along the rocky paths are the Eight Daoist Immortals, each finely distinguished by their characteristic attributes, including He Xiangu with ruyi, Zhongli Quan with fan, Han Xiangzi with flute, Lü Dongbin with sword, and Li Tieguai with double gourd, their animated poses enlivening the scene, the wood of chocolate-brown tone.
21cm (8 1/4in) high.
Footnotes
十八世紀 黃楊木雕八仙祝壽圖擺件
Delicately carved in high relief with openwork, this lot highlights the skill and craftsmanship of the master carver, with the Immortals depicted with exceptional naturalistic sensitivity, and the natural contours of the mountainous landscape skillfully cut out at varying levels of relief.
The Eight Daoist Immortals (Ba Xian 八仙) constitute one of the most widely recognised ensembles in the Daoist pantheon, each figure embodying a distinct mode of transcendence and carrying an attribute through which their powers are manifested. Zhongli Quan wields a feathered fan capable of reviving the dead or transforming objects; Lü Dongbin bears a sword to dispel demons and a fly-whisk symbolising self-cultivation; Zhang Guolao carries a bamboo tube-drum or rides his mule, denoting eccentric wisdom; Li Tieguai's iron crutch and gourd identify him as the patron of the sick and destitute; Han Xiangzi's flute evokes harmony and the transformative power of music; Lan Caihe, often depicted with a flower basket, represents carefree spontaneity and the renewal of nature; He Xiangu holds a lotus, emblematic of purity and health; and Cao Guojiu, with court tablet or castanets, signifies upright conduct and the redemptive potential of moral rectitude. Collectively, the group embodies the Daoist ideal that Immortality may be attained through diverse paths: discipline, virtue, art, eccentricity, or compassion, thus offering a multifaceted model of spiritual attainment within Chinese religious and artistic traditions.
Compare with a related bamboo-root mountain carved with the Immortals congratulating the Heavenly Queen Mother of the West on her birthday, Qing dynasty, in the Shanghai museum, illustrated in , Shanghai, 2012, p.117, no.52. See also in the Palace Museum, Taipei, a related boxwood brushpot, 17th/18th century, carved with scholars in the west garden, illustrated by Chi Jo-hsin, , Taipei, 2010, pp.104-110, no.24.
本拍品採高浮雕兼鏤空技法，人物形神畢現，山水層巒疊嶂，深淺錯落有致，足見匠人巧思與刀法之精湛。
八仙乃道教神譜中家喻戶曉之仙班，各顯神通，各有法寶以彰其能。鍾離權持羽扇，能起死回生、點物成金；呂洞賓佩劍以斬妖除魔，兼執拂塵象徵修真養性；張果老負竹筒鼓、倒騎驢，寓奇逸之智；李鐵拐拄鐵杖、懸葫蘆，為病苦貧弱者之護佑；韓湘子吹笛，聲和萬物，顯樂教之功；藍采和提花籃，象無拘之趣、春回之機；何仙姑持蓮花，表純淨康寧；曹國舅執笏板或拍板，示正直之行、悔過成善之道。八仙齊集，體現道教超凡入聖之途徑，或持戒修德，或寄情藝文，或行跡怪誕，或悲憫濟世。
比較上海博物館藏一件清代竹根雕群仙祝壽山子，其人物布局可資參照，見《竹鏤文心：竹刻珍品特集》，上海，2012年，頁117，編號52。另參考台北故宮博物院所藏一件十七/十八世紀黃楊木西園雅集圖筆筒，著錄於嵇若昕，《匠心與仙工：明清雕刻展：竹木果核篇》，台北，2010年，頁104至110，編號24。
