Guang Yu, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei. Watercolor. China, early 20th century. Framed painting showing three male figures, with a text on the right side. The one reading and sitting on a throne covered with tiger skin, stands out above all for his beard, but also for his rich clothing. The two characters are situated Standing, they also wear rich (although somewhat less) clothing, and one carries a halberd or spear while another carries an object in his hands. Guang Yu was a military general under Lui Bei during the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms Period of ancient China, and his life and achievements were so extolled and glorified that he was deified during the Sui Dynasty, emphasizing his exploits further in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and becoming one of the main examples of loyalty and righteousness, receiving worship even today and receiving names such as "Emperor Guan" or "Lord Guan". Together with Zhang Fei shared a brotherly relationship with Lui Bei, and accompanied him on some of his early exploits. Weight: 9 kg.

Box or casket with royal monogram. Mahogany wood, metal. Spain, 19th century. It has slight damage. Rectangular box with a flat lid and a keyhole on the front, decorated with metal applications on the corners, edges, handles, etc. Below the keyhole there is a fleur-de-lis. The lid has a central motif with fleur-de-lis and a crowned M, and alternating crowned castles and lions in the corners. This emblem (and the fact that it is accompanied by lions and castles, alluding to Castilian heraldry) is reminiscent of the royal monograms that all members of the royal family apparently had in the past to mark their belongings. In this case, it is possible that it refers to Maria Cristina of Bourbon-Two Sicilies (Palermo, 1806-Sainte-Adresse, 1878), wife of Ferdinand VII and regent during the minority of Isabel II. However, we must remember Maria Cristina of Habsburg-Lorraine or of Austria (1858-1929), wife of Alfonso XII. The emblem of Maria de las Mercedes de Orleans and Bourbon (Madrid, 1860-1878), wife of Alfonso XII, used to appear with two capital “Ms”.

Saint Teresa of Avila. Oil on canvas. Spanish school, 17th century. Oil on canvas showing a woman in a Carmelite habit joining her hands in a gesture of prayer and looking up at a dove (Holy Spirit) which is also identified with a text in capital letters (S. Teresa D Xesú, Saint Teresa of Jesus) and accompanied by another nun in the habit of the same order, as was common in works destined for convents (dowries, donations, etc.). It is inspired by the iconography that emerged from the “true effigy” of Friar Juan de la Miseria from 1576 (Monastery of the Discalced Carmelites of Seville, Spain), a fundamental model for art and whose first series was that of Cornelius Galle and Adrián Collaert (Antwerp, 1613) that accompanied the Vita Beatae Virginis Teresiae a Iesu.
