拍品专文


While the inscriptions on this bottle point out that the fisherman is kept company by the egrets, the additional imagery of two bats, one shown rightside up and the other upside down, can be interpreted as 'a double blessing (shuangfu)' formed by 'pair' (shuang) and 'bats' (fu). For a further discussion, see T. Bartholomew in Hidden Meanings in Chinese Art, Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, 2006, p. 22.
