拍品专文

The present carp tureen seems to be from the same molds as the other examples of the monumental form known: one illustrated by S. Roth, Chinese Porcelain Imported by the Swedish East India Company, p. 27, which had been bought for N. Sahlgren (1701-76); another, with the arms of Don Matias de Galvez y Gallardo, Viceroy of New Spain, illustrated by J. Mudge, Chinese Export Porcelain, p. 55; another offered Sotheby's New York, 23 October 1992, lot 98, and one sold Sotheby's Monaco, 29 February 1992, lot 536. This last example is the only other carp to display much colored enamel.
