Descrizione

A FAMILLE ROSE 'HUNDRED BATS' AND 'HONGFU QITIAN 洪福齊天' GLOBULAR TRUMPET-NECKED VASE, TIANQIUPING Guangxu six-character mark and possibly of the period Brightly enamelled with a profusion of iron-red bats in flight amidst multicoloured lingzhi clouds, between a band of ruyi heads at the rim and upright lappets around the foot, divided at the shoulder by a band of lotus sprays alternating with gilt shou characters on the shoulder above a gilt relief border. H: 40 cm Notes: 1. Represented in conjunction with the character shou 壽, meaning longevity, and blossoming lotuses, symbolising fertility, bats are homophone with the word for happiness 福. Combined with coloured clouds, symbolic of luck, red bats were also regarded as representing the upper limits of heaven, generating the pun 'Vast happiness piled up to the sky', hongfu qitian 洪福齊天. 2. The combination of many colourful ‘feu de moufle’ enamels, highly delicate and difficult to handle, implies multiple firing of the piece at different temperatures and also requires high skills and experience that can be achieved only by the best craftsmen of Jingdezhen kilns. 3. Compare with an identical vase sold at BONHAM'S London, 2017/05/11, lot 218, for €19,071. Also compare with another identical vase sold in the same rooms, 2012/05/17, lot 359 for €13.936. Finally, also compare with an almost identical vase sold at CHRISTIE’S New York, 2013/09/20, lot 1389, for USD43,750. 4. For a similar vase, please also refer to the collection of the Nanjing Museum, Jiangsu Province, China, as illustrated in China's Jingdezhen Porcelain Through The Ages, Qing Dynasty, Hong Kong, 1998, p.357. 清光绪 粉彩百蝠纹天球瓶 矾红“大清光绪年制”六字楷书款 彩绘大量红蝙蝠在五彩灵芝云间飞舞,瓶身顶部有如意头带,肩部以荷花带隔开并有鎏金饰带,足部有金寿字交替。 高:40 厘米 备注: 蝙蝠与寓意长寿的“寿”和象征如意的荷花连用,与“福”字谐音。与象征幸运的彩云相结合,红蝙蝠也被视为代表“福气”,故产生了双关语“福气满天”或“洪福齐天”。 多种彩绘与珐琅的组合,花纹及其精致,意味着需要再不同温度下多次烧制,需要有高超的技能以及丰富的经验,只有景德镇窑最技艺最精湛的工匠方可做到。 与在邦瀚斯伦敦(BONHAM'S London)售出的相同花瓶进行比较,2017/05/11,拍品编号 218,成交价19,071 欧元。另一个类似花瓶于2012/05/17,拍品编号 359,成交价为 13,936 欧元。 另类似花瓶可见中国南京博物院藏品,中国《景德镇历代瓷器》,清代,香港,1998年,第357页。
