A FAMILLE ROSE 'DRAGON BOAT RACE' VASE
SHENDETANG ZHI HALL MARK IN IRON-RED, DAOGUANG PERIOD (1821-1850)
The ovoid body of the vase has been finely painted in colourful enamels to depict a dragon boat race. The two boats, one modelled as a dragon and the other as a phoenix, are filled with boys rowing. They race on a sea of green waves and are surrounded by shores and distant mountains where people cheer them on. The tall waisted neck has a pair of kui dragon flattened handles, and is decorated to each side with a central lotus bloom borne on a leafy meander with smaller flowers.
12¼ in. (31.1 cm.) high
