YINGBI (SPIRIT SCREEN)
Made by Atique with 3 Antique Chinese Doors (ca.1870)
.
A spirit screen, also called screen wall, (影壁 yingbi, lit. ‘shadow wall’ or 照壁 zhaobi lit. ‘bright wall’ ) is used to shield an entrance gate in traditional Chinese architecture. The term “yingbi” refers to screens on the outside as well as the inside, whereas the term “zhaobi” is used only for screens on the outside. They can be constructed from a variety of materials such as brick, wood, stone, or glazed tile. Spirit screens are tied to the belief that evil spirits cannot move around corners, hence the spirit screen blocks them from entering through the gate they shield. Practically, they allow natural light and air circulation to enter a room, while keeping privacy.
.
Una Pantalla de Espiritus, también llamada Muro Pantalla, (影壁 yingbi, lit. ‘muro de sombra’ o 照壁 zhaobi lit. ‘muro brillante’) se utiliza para proteger la puerta de entrada en la arquitectura tradicional china. El término «yingbi» se usa para las pantallas tanto en el exterior como en el interior, mientras que el término «zhaobi» se utiliza sólo para las exteriores. Pueden construirse con diversos materiales, como ladrillo, madera, piedra o azulejos. Las Pantallas de Espiritus están vinculadas a la creencia de que los espíritus malignos no pueden doblar esquinas, de ahí que la pantalla les impida entrar por la puerta que protegen. En la práctica, permiten que la luz natural y la circulación del aire entren en una habitación, al tiempo que mantienen la privacidad.

Yamantaka, Destroyer of the God of Death

This image of a wrathful protector of Buddhism would have been an awesome presence in the dimly lit interior of a Tibetan monastery. Yamantaka is a violent aspect of the Bodhisattva Manjushri, who assumes this form to vanquish Yama, the god of death. By defeating Yama, the cycle of rebirths (samsara) that prevents enlightenment is broken. Yamantaka, who shares many attributes with Mahakala, is identified by his blue skin and the array of attributes displayed here. He is encircled by five smaller manifestations, each a Yama-conqueror riding a buffalo.

Djiver Flea Market
.
The Dijver market is a ‘folkloric market’, vendors may only sell stuff of over five decades old. What lacks in size makes up for by its location and charm, by the canal and shaded by trees. Made some pretty nice buys too. First one a lithography of china that is interesting in that it shows the author was never in China (gate towers never looked like that) and of course, how appropriate to buy in Belgium a Tintin true vintage memento, Casterman printed 1998.
