Lazarnick, George

Lazarnick, George Signature Book of Netsuke, Inro and Ojime Artists in Photographs, 1st edition, published by Reed Publishers, USA, 1976, hardcover with slipcase. Provenance: from The Collection of the late Jean and Jacques Sieulle, Jersey. Jean and Jacques Sieulle were entrepreneurs, gallery owners, property developers, and discerning collectors, particularly of Oriental art and antiques. They married in Paris in the late 1960s and for their honeymoon embarked on a six-month world tour during which they compiled a list of places they hoped to revisit. Throughout the following two decades the couple travelled extensively, revisiting many of the destinations in the Far East and South Pacific that had first captivated them, among them Bora Bora, Thailand, Sri Lanka, China, and Japan. They also journeyed widely across Europe. In 1990 they spent several months in Hong Kong before returning to Jersey to retire. Most of the pieces from their collection were acquired during their travels.
