拍品專文

Bird-form vessels first appeared in bronze made during the Western Zhou period (11th-8th Century BC) and became a popular archaistic subject during the Ming and Qing dynasties. A similar late Ming dynasty version of this vessel in bronze is in the National Palace Museum, and is illustrated in Through the Prism of the Past, Taipei, 2003, p. 174, pl. III-42.
