A LARGE BRONZE RITUAL TRIPOD FOOD VESSEL AND COVER, DING

PROPERTY FROM A DISTINGUISHED PRIVATE COLLECTION Christie's is delighted to offer the following finely cast archaic bronze ritual vessel, and a Tang dynasty straw and amber-glazed pottery figure of a horse (lot 1432), from a distinguished private collection. Shaped by a sophisticated and discerning eye, the well-curated collection included masterpieces from the Italian Renaissance and highly important Greek and Roman Antiquities, including a celebrated 16th century portrait by Scipione Pulzone and a magnificent bust of the emperor Marcus Aurelius, which realized impressive results in our recent December 2012 sale of Antiquities and the January 2013 Renaissance sale.
