A vase painted with similar scenes obviously depicting the West Lake, as most of the buildings are identified by name, is illustrated in the Kangxi Porcelain Ware from the Shanghai Museum Collection, Hong Kong, 1998, pl. 55. The present vase is closely related to the the Shanghai example in its painting style.

Compare with a similar vase also bearing an apocryphal Chenghua mark dated to the Kangxi period sold at Christie's New York, 21 March 2002, lot 193.
