拍品专文

The present ewer is notable for its peach-form, as well as the charming and naturalistic decoration of fruits and leaves issuing from the twisted trunk which forms the stem. Compare a related teapot decorated with similar flying insects and fruiting, leafy branches, recovered from the Hatcher shipwreck (circa 1643), sold at Christie's Amsterdam, 14 March 1984, lot 56, and illustrated by J. Harrison-Hall, Ming Ceramics in the British Museum, London, 2001, p. 360, no. 12:17. See, also, a peach-form ewer, also recovered from the Hatcher shipwreck, and illustrated by M. Beurdeley and G. Raindre, Qing Porcelain: Famille Verte, Famille Rose, London, 1987, p. 15. pl. 2.
