Provenance:
Acquired from Gurie Gallery, Montreal, during 1950-60s.
Initially based in Harbin in northeastern China during the first half of the 20th Century, the Gurevich family moved to Canada during the 1950s and opened the Gurie Gallery, a staple of Montreal’s trendy Sherbrooke street. The Gurie Gallery was one of the first to focus on Chinese ceramics, decorative arts and paintings, and was extremely popular to collectors in Montreal, Toronto and New York. The son, Alex Gurevich (1929-1990), took over the store during the 1960s and continued to source objects through frequent visits to Hong Kong.
1950-60年代購自蒙特利爾Gurie藝廊。該藝廊由古列維奇Gurevich家族創建,上世紀五十年代從遠東哈爾濱遷居北美,系加國最早專營中國藝術品的古董行之一,備受蒙特利爾、多倫多及紐約藏家歡迎。1960年代傳于二代掌門人Alex Gurevich (1929-1990),多於香港進貨,1980年代結業。
Overall very good condition.
