Provenance: French family collection. Supposedly brought back from Asia in the mid-twentieth century by a family relative known as Marcel. The presence of a book dedicated by Michel Beurdeley to Marcel (1962) testifies to his interest in the arts of the Far East. The collection has been passed down to the current owners.
