Yellow Ground Famille Rose Vase with Flowers and Insects Pattern ITEM#
VJ40011 Size:
8" x 8" x 12" This vase has a small flared mouth, a straight neck and a globular belly. It was a common porcelain vase during the Yongzheng and Qianlong reigns in the Qing dynasty and was named "Tian Qiu Ping." Since the late Qianlong period, it has become popular to paint famille rose over various monochrome-glazed backgrounds, often seen on red, yellow, blue, coral red, rough red, etc. For the decorative pattern, it is usually painted sprays of plants over the colored background, leaving the center or belly panels for designs of various subjects. This is to highlight patterns in the panel and to strengthen the visual appeal. This is a typical example of this kind of decoration. * Wood base included |
