Previously sold at Sotheby's London, 12 December 1989, lot 145.

Two identical bowls to the present lot, both with Kangxi yuzhi marks, are known: one in Beijing, illustrated in Metal-bodied Enamel Ware, The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum, Hong Kong, 2002, pl. 177; and the other included in the Exhibition of Chinese Export Porcelain and Enamels, the Wilmington Society of Fine Arts, 1957, illustrated in the Catalogue, no. 285, and subsequently sold at Sotheby's New York, 1 June 1993, lot 101.

As the production techniques of enamelled porcelain during the Kangxi reign generally imitated those of enamelled metalware, the composition and style of enamelling on this bowl are closely related to those found on a number of Kangxi yuzhi porcelain bowls with formal floral scrolls on coloured grounds. Cf. the three shallow bowls of this composition on pink, yellow and ruby-red grounds, all with blue or ruby-enamelled marks, illustrated in Painted Enamels of the Ch'ing Dynasty, National Palace Museum, Taiwan, 1979, nos. 3, 4 and 7, respectively.
