This April we are honored to present the extraordinary art collection of Lila Mae “Peggy” Azad — a woman whose lifelong devotion to the arts lives on through her legacy.

Peggy once wrote: “I am the temporary custodian. In exchange for the privilege of living with and caring for my objects I am leaving them all for a museum or art gallery for the ‘public’ to enjoy after Manouch and I are no longer alive.” Her wish was to ensure that her collection would one day be shared with the world.

This significant collection includes over 90 Chinese and Japanese ivory sculptures and more than 114 diverse works from around the globe — spanning American, Chinese, French, Iranian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Native American, Russian, Thai, and Vietnamese origins. The pieces vary in form and material, including porcelain, cloisonné, glass vases, plates, bowls, bronze and carved alabaster sculptures, a Russian brass samovar, Japanese woodblock prints, and hand-woven Iranian silk tapestry panels threaded with gold and silver.

Notably, the collection features works by renowned Iranian artists Parviz Tanavoli and Sia Armajani, reflecting Peggy’s deep connection to both international and Iranian art and culture.

Born on May 5, 1933, in her family’s home in St. Paul, Minnesota, to Jesse Joseph Schneider and Laura Harriette Ronning Schneider, Peggy — known to many simply as Peggy Azad — lived a life filled with purpose, passion, and artistic appreciation.

4月18日，Clars拍卖公司将在其春季亚洲精品艺术拍卖会上为广大藏家呈现一系列的精美藏品。本次拍卖将隆重呈献多件珍贵艺术品，涵盖家具、瓷器、刺绣及现当代艺术及各类精品杂项。

家具部分家具由一对18世纪中国黄花梨南官帽椅领衔。官帽椅起源于宋代，并在明清时期盛行。由于其出众的外形和美好的寓意，历来深受官员和士人青睐，也广受世人喜爱。官帽椅的名称源于其背部高而前低，形似古代官吏所戴的幞头纱帽。实际上，带扶手的椅子基本上都有这种形状。如今，北京匠师常称带扶手且靠背和扶手都突出部分的椅子为“四出头官帽椅”，如果扶手不突出，则称为“南官帽椅”。Clars的一对极具江南地区官帽椅的独特风格。拍品采用罕见的三段式靠背板设计，扶手线条简洁流畅，没有使用联邦棍结构，展现了经典的匠艺魅力。

瓷器部分则特别呈现一组清嘉庆款黄地粉彩花卉番莲花盆及盆托。花盆及盆托均呈典雅菊花状，盆壁较深，设有两个圆孔；盆托周壁低浅，底部无孔。二者皆置于四个如意云形足之上，外壁精绘缠枝番莲纹及八宝祥纹饰，底部书以矾红篆书「大清嘉庆年制」六字款识。

本季我们将推出一系列精选刺绣作品，尤其值得瞩目的是一件十八世纪清代御制黄地织锦缎彩云金龙纹藏袍。自唐末起，中国与西藏的关系不断演进，自元、明、清各朝通过政治与宗教交流，持续向西藏输送宫廷织造的珍贵丝织品。这些织物起初为宫廷专用，后来成为赠予西藏贵族与高僧的重要礼品。十八世纪，清廷特为佛教仪式定制华美丝绸服饰，赐予大量龙袍，逐渐成为西藏贵族的传统礼装。

本件藏袍用十八世纪清代御制黄地织锦缎，于西藏打造，饰以五爪金龙攫珠图案，背景铺陈多彩云团，粉、蓝、绿及赭石交错辉映，衣摆为陆地图纹。衣领与饰边用淡蓝色丝绸描绘原始波浪形边缘，整体高55英寸、宽70英寸。此袍不仅展现清代宫廷工艺之精，更是中藏历史交流的重要实物见证。

亚洲现当代部分重点呈现旅美华裔抽象艺术大师庄喆的两件重要作品：第一件为1971年创作的《四季篇》（Seasons Page），艺术家采用综合媒材在画布上进行创作，作品尺寸为33英寸高、49.5英寸宽，左下角带有庄喆的中文署名。该作曾于1972年在美国德州休斯敦的杜博斯画廊（DuBose Gallery）展出，并附有庄喆本人的亲笔签名与展览手册，极富收藏价值。第二件为庄喆的《无题抽象风景》，这是一幅布面油画，右下角有艺术家的中文签名，带框尺寸为39.25英寸高、49.5英寸宽。此作来源于私人收藏，于20世纪80年代初从旧金山一家画廊购入。庄喆的艺术风格融汇东西方美学，以抽象表现主义的手法诠释中国传统文化意境，在国际艺术界享有盛誉。

此外，一尊明代木雕水月观音雕像亦将亮相本次拍卖。这尊观音像高约1.1米，以自在随意的坐姿安坐岩石之上，右腿曲起倚靠右臂，左腿舒展，足踏一底座。整体雕刻生动传神，观音头戴精致宝冠，神态安详慈祥，面容丰润细腻。颈胸处雕琢华美项链及璎珞装饰，衣纹飘逸，色彩依稀可见，充分体现出宋元以来水月观音自在闲适的艺术风格，兼具高度的历史与艺术价值。

我们期待4月18日与您在Clars Auctions的春季亚洲精品拍卖上相见。
