Her father, an industrial engineer and businessman, was also an accomplished painter and collector of Catalan paintings. From the time she was a child, her family cultivated the Baroness’s love of the arts. Internationally educated and well-traveled, the Baroness was exposed to a vast array of cultures with distinct artistic traditions, fostering her love of art from all corners of the world. In 1985 the Baroness married Baron Hans Heinrich von Thyssen-Bornemisza, a businessman and devoted art collector, reigniting her childhood passion and catalyzing an even deeper commitment to the arts. The marriage of the Baron and Baroness not only merged two families, but also joined their two distinctive collections into a comprehensive group of more than 1,200 works, including paintings by renowned artists such as Titian, Van Gogh and Picasso. With her husband at her side, the Baroness elegantly stepped into the role as co-caretaker of the Thyssen-Bornemisza family collection, focusing mainly on nineteenth and twentieth century North American and European painting, including select works of Impressionism, Post-Impressionism and Expressionism. Together they continued to build what was to become one of the most revered art collections in Europe. Housed in the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza in Madrid since 1992, the Thyssen-Bornemisza collection boasts Western art works spanning from the thirteenth to the twentieth centuries, as well as works from Asia and beyond. The Baroness has a special fondness for Asian works of art and furniture, which fill her home. This present cloisonné table illustrates her keen eye for Asian art and her commitment to collecting at the highest level in every field. Until recently, this piece remained in pride of place in her home alongside other works from her personal collection.

A RARE AND IMPORTANT CLOISONNE ENAMEL 'DRAGON' SQUARE TABLE
CHINA, QING DYNASTY, LATE 17TH CENTURY

拍品專文

The present cloisonne table is extremely rare and only one other published example is known. See an almost identical cloisonne table in the Uldry collection, dated second half of the 17th century, illustrated in Chinese Cloisonné: The Pierre Uldry Collection, London, 1989, no. 182. The similarity between these two tables in their decoration and their later adapted wood structure strongly suggest that they were probably made as a pair. The present decoration combining this type of sophisticated dragons and the diaper ground is also quite extraordinary, compare with a rare cloisonne enamel incense stand, also dated second half of the 17th century, illustrated by Sir Harry Garner, Chinese and Japanese Cloisonné Enamels, London, 1970, pl. 65.
