A VERY RARE CARVED BLUE AND WHITE 'PRUNUS' BALUSTER VASE
PROPERTY FROM THE WALTER AND PHYLLIS SHORENSTEIN COLLECTION
清康熙 青花月影梅觀音尊

KANGXI PERIOD (1662-1722)

細節
尊撇口,短頸凸弦紋,弧腹下歛,圈足外撇。通體青花紋飾,以鈷藍料單線勾勒外形,繪梅樹枝葉舒展,梅花或盛開,或含苞待放,在白地的襯托下營造出雪地、月光、冰梅、月中開放的朦朧奇效。

「觀音尊」亦稱「觀音尊」瓶,為康熙朝典型器,多繪青花紋飾。此器造型俊美,繪製細膩生動,滿有「素艷雪凝樹,清香風滿枝」的意境。梅花冰肌玉骨,獨步早春,被人賦予高潔、堅強、謙虛的品格。梅花又是十二月花神之一,神號「壽公主」。

此器分別為Richard Bennett(生於1849 年)、Leonard Gow(1859-1936年)舊藏。著錄於1911年倫敦出版E. Gorer 著《Catalogue of the Collection of Old Chinese Porcelains Formed by Richard Bennett Esq.》,圖版142 號;以及1931 年倫敦出版R.L. Hobson 著《Catalogue of the Leonard Gow Collection of Chinese Porcelain》圖版X。曾於倫敦1935-36年舉辦《倫敦中國藝術國際展覽會》展出,展品1795號。1992 年6 月4 日於紐約佳士得拍賣,拍品352 號。現為舒思深伉儷收藏。
