Catalogue Note
The elegant form of this vase, with its globular body gently tapering at the neck, and its parallel raised ribs, provides a perfect canvas for showcasing the subtle pattern of crackles on the thick and unctuous glaze. In both its gracefulness of form and sophisticated glaze, this vase is an archetypal example of Yongzheng monochrome porcelain and reflects the Emperor’s penchant in celebrated Song dynasty (960-1279) wares. His enthusiastic patronage of the imperial kilns in Jingdezhen and thorough knowledge of China’s porcelain tradition, resulted in the emergence of a profusion of new porcelain shapes and colours.
The fabled guanyao (‘official wares’), made especially for the Southern Song dynasty (1127-1279) court in Hangzhou, was held in high esteem by countless generations, including the Manchu Emperors of the Qing dynasty. While reproductions of these early wares were first made at Jingdezhen in the early Ming dynasty (1368-1644), it was under the Yongzheng reign that they reached a peak in both quality and quantity. The Emperor is recorded to have commissioned such reproductions, and to even have sent to Jingdezhen original guanyao vessels from the imperial collection. The elegant form of this piece was most likely inspired by guanyao pear-shaped bottles, but was given a contemporary look through its flat foot and gently tapering neck. A guanyao bottle vase, later inscribed on the foot with a Qianlong poem, in the National Palace Museum, Taipei, was included in the Museum’s exhibition Obtaining Refined Enjoyment. The Qianlong Emperor’s Taste in Ceramics, Taipei, 2012, cat. no. 30.
Vases of this form and proportions are unusual, although a related vase with more prominent crackles, from the Avery Brundage collection, in the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, is illustrated in René-Yvon Lefebvre d’Argencé, Avery Brundage Collection. Chinese Ceramics, San Francisco, 1967, pl. LXX, no. A. See also a slightly larger guan-type vase of this form and with Yongzheng mark and of the period, sold at Christie’s New York, 19th September 1996, lot 305; and another sold at Christie’s London, 18th June 2002, lot 66.
Vases of this form are also known in other monochrome glazes inspired by Song dynasty wares; a flambé-glazed vase in the Palace Museum, Beijing, is illustrated in Qingdai yuyao ciqi [Qing imperial porcelains], vol. 1, pt. II, Beijing, 2005, pl. 131. A vase of related form covered in a robin’s egg glaze, in the National Palace Museum, Taipei, was included in the Museum’s Special Exhibition of K’ang-hsi, Yung-cheng and Ch’ien-lung Porcelain Ware from the Ch’ing Dynasty, Taipei, 1986, cat. no. 54.
此瓶器型典雅,瓶腹浑圆,瓶颈修长,饰平行弦纹, 突显冰裂纹秀丽,釉质丰厚润泽。本品器型优雅,仿官釉莹润,属雍正年间仿古单色瓷之典型,从中可见雍正帝对宋瓷之青睐。雍正帝热心艺文,支持景德镇御窑,对中国瓷器传统学养深刻,所成瓷器纷呈新颖。
官窑器,特别为南宋位于杭州之宫廷烧制,历代深厚敬崇,满清皇帝亦不例外。仿官窑器,始于早明景德镇,雍正年间质与量均达顶峰,曾送御藏官窑珍品至景德镇为模范。本品器型,相信出自官窑梨形瓶,平足及修颈则更和当时品味。台北故宫博物院收藏一官窑瓶例,瓶足带乾隆御制诗,曾展于《得佳趣:乾隆皇帝的陶瓷品味》,台北,2012年,编号30。
本品器型及比例甚为罕见,唯可比较一例,出自Avery Brundage收藏,冰裂纹更为明显,现藏于旧金山亚洲艺术博物馆,René-Yvon Lefebvre d’Argencé,《Avery Brundage Collection. Chinese Ceramics》,旧金山,1967年,图版LXX,编号A。另比一例,尺寸稍大,器型相近,雍正年器并款,售于1996年纽约佳士得1996年9月16日,编号305;另一例售于伦敦佳士得2002年6月18日,编号 66。
此外,亦可比较取材宋代瓷器之单色釉例,北京故宫博物院收藏一窑变釉例,图载于《清代御窑瓷器》,卷1(2),北京,2005年,图版131;台北故宫博物院亦藏一例,施炉钧釉,曾展于《清康雍干名瓷》,台北,1986年,编号54。
