A BLUE AND WHITE OVOID JAR AND COVER
SHUNZHI PERIOD, CIRCA 1640-1650
The jar, of ovoid form with short neck, is decorated in vibrant tones of cobalt blue with a continuous scene of a lotus pond in which various acquatic birds gather, including a heron nestled within lotus blossoms, two geese in flight above and a third perched on a rock, and an alert kingfisher perched on a long blade of millet with curling leaves. The scene is set beneath a carved scroll band around the shoulders and a band of lappets on the neck. The domed cover is decorated with a fourth goose perched on a rock beside lotus plants.
11 ¼ in. (28.4 cm.) high

In her comments on this jar and cover in Shunzhi Porcelain: Treasures from an Unknown Reign, 1644-1661, Alexandria, VA, 2002, Dr. Julia Curtis compares this piece with a vase from the collection of Daisy Lion-Goldschmidt, pointing out the shared qualities of the two that are typical of Shunzhi-period porcelains. Besides the violet tones of the cobalt blue, the green-tinted glaze, and the similar incised borders and bands of pointed leaves, she notes that “The spatial composition of the two vessels is also typical of the Shunzhi era; the decoration makes copious use of negative space on the unpainted surfaces of the vessels."
