From the Collection of John Marsing (1918-1998)

Lots 45 to 89 come from the collection of John Marsing (1918-1998). John Marsing
was only 20 when he established his company Marsing & Co. in the chemical and
pharmaceutical industry. Over the next 30 years, the company expanded from two
to 300 employees and became an international company with branches in Europe,
Canada and Korea. Even so, Marsing found time to establish a large collection of
mainly Himalayan art focusing on figures of quality. Most of them remained outside
the public eye, but lots 71, 83 and 88 were catalogued by Ulrich von Schroeder in his
monumental publication from 1981 entitled “Indo Tibetan Bronzes”.

来自John Marsing (1918-1998)的收藏

第45至89号拍品来自John Marsing (1918-1998)的收藏。John Marsing刚年仅20就已
建立了他的Marsing & Co.化学制药公司，在后来的30年中，该公司从两人发展到300
多名雇员，并成为在欧洲、加拿大和韩国都设有分部的国际性公司。即便如此，-
Marsing仍匀出时间去创建大规模以喜马拉雅艺术为主的高品位造像收藏。它们之
中的大部分从未公示于众，但71，83和88号曾被Ulrich von Schroeder在他1981年出
版的不朽的《印度. 西藏青铜器》一书中被编入了目录。下列拍品即是来自于Marsing
的亚洲艺术收藏。
