\nChina, 19th century
\n(losses and faults)","additional_info":[{"title":"Additional Information","text":"The piece we now present is called the \u201cOne Hundred faces\u201d or \u201cOne Thousand Faces\u201d hand fan (a designation that comes from an incorrect translation from the Chinese, where \u201ca thousand\u201d mean numerous faces and not a specific number) but it can also be called a \"Mandarin\" hand fan.
\nThis designation refers to the title given to senior officials in ancient China.
\nApplied to Chinese pieces, this term was probably used for the first time by the famous French collector of Western ceramics, Albert Jacquemart (1808-1875), to describe export porcelain pieces ornamented with mandarin figures on panels surrounded by flowers. From porcelain the term also came to be used to name this concrete type of hand fans, as they have a similar decoration.
\nThese objects are characterized by having the leaf decorated, usually on both sides, with paintings representing scenes from the court life or chinese daily life. The scene is usually surrounded by a frame with symbolic motifs identical to the porcelain of the Famille Rose.
\nThis hand fan shows on one side a view of Macau outer harbor, where in addition to several boats, we can see the last national flag of the Portuguese monarchical regime, which makes it as rare piece."}],"tags":"Objects","auction_session":"1","gallery":[{"image":{"ID":171828,"id":171828,"title":"95_1","filename":"1-1.jpg","filesize":9186877,"url":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1.jpg","link":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/en\/lot\/raro-leque-cem-faces-com-vista-do-porto-exterior-de-macau-671067994\/95_1\/","alt":"","author":"5529","description":"","caption":"","name":"95_1","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":169872,"date":"2020-02-24 13:34:04","modified":"2020-02-24 13:34:07","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":4999,"height":2978,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":179,"medium_large":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":458,"large":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":610,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":915,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1220,"v_medium":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1-640x381.jpg","v_medium-width":640,"v_medium-height":381,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":179,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":238,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1-1.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":357}},"is_video":false,"video_source":"","video_id":"","use_video_thumbnail":true},{"image":{"ID":171830,"id":171830,"title":"95_1a","filename":"1a.jpg","filesize":10448845,"url":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a.jpg","link":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/en\/lot\/raro-leque-cem-faces-com-vista-do-porto-exterior-de-macau-671067994\/95_1a\/","alt":"","author":"5529","description":"","caption":"","name":"95_1a","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":169872,"date":"2020-02-24 13:34:12","modified":"2020-02-24 13:34:13","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":5074,"height":3015,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":178,"medium_large":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":456,"large":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":608,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":913,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1217,"v_medium":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a-640x380.jpg","v_medium-width":640,"v_medium-height":380,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":178,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":238,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/veritas.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/1a.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":357}},"is_video":false,"video_source":"","video_id":"","use_video_thumbnail":true}],"auction":{"ID":169026,"post_author":"44","post_date":"2019-12-12 13:58:12","post_date_gmt":"2019-12-12 13:58:12","post_content":"","post_title":"Auction 95 -
