拍品专文

The long poetic inscriptions on the current bowls eulogise the subtle beauty and movement of the birds and flowers. The inscriptions describe the way that small birds gather on branches in search of a resting place, with flowers posing to show off their beauty and the thin vines winding around the green leaves and branches for support.
