Cataloguing
Catalogue Note
Notable for its generous proportions and finely painted feathery scroll in doucai enamels， meiping of this type are rare and no other closely related example appears to have been published. The floral scroll was masterfully executed， with each bloom and flowering bud skillfully painted as viewed from a different angle， thus creating a sophisticated and yet uncontrived design.
A slightly smaller meiping and cover with a dragon against a similarly rendered flower scroll， from the Qing Court collection and still in Beijing， is illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures in the Palace Museum. Porcelains in Polychrome and Contrasting Colours， Hong Kong， 1999， pl. 237； and one lacking the cover and painted with bajixiang， from the collection of Gordon Cummings， was sold at Christie’s New York， 3rd June 1988， lot 313.
This vase echoes in multiple ways the celebrated porcelain tradition of the Ming dynasty （1368-1644）； the doucai colour scheme， whereby the outlines of the design were first painted in underglaze blue and later filled in overglaze enamels， references the Chenghua reign （r. 1465-1487）， when the quality of doucai porcelain was at its peak. Its rendering of the floral blooms and feathery scroll， as well as the decorative band at the foot， on the other hand recall porcelain designs of the early Ming period. A Yongle （r. 1403-1424） period meiping， of much smaller size， painted with lotus buds and blooms， in the National Palace Museum， Taipei， was included in the Museum’s exhibition Radiating Hues of Blue and White. Ming Dynasty Blue-and-White Porcelains in the National Palace Museum Collection， Taipei， 2016， cat. no. 15； and a reconstructed meiping with a Xuande mark and of the period， painted with dragons above a similar band at the foot， recovered from the waste heaps of the Ming imperial kiln site in Jingdezhen， is illustrated in Imperial Porcelains from the Reign of Xuande in the Ming Dynasty， Beijing， 2018， pl. 61.
本瓶编制庞大，闘彩纹饰秀丽，此类梅瓶甚为珍罕，据现时记载并无他例可比。本瓶番莲纹饰精工绘制，或绘花儿盛开，或描含苞待放，角度每朵不一，构图雅致而不过份工整。比较一例，尺寸较小，瓶盖饰龙纹，清宫旧藏，现存于北京，图载于《故宫博物院藏文物珍品大系．五彩．鬪彩》，香港，1999年，图版237；另比一例，无盖，八吉祥纹饰，出自Gordon Cummings收藏，售于纽约佳士得1988年6月3日，编号313。
本瓶以明代珍瓷为蓝，从数处可见：鬪彩纹饰，先施釉下青花，后上釉上彩，而成化鬪彩，诚属至臻；瓶身施缠枝番莲纹，近足处环施纹饰，属于早明瓷器纹饰风格。台北故宫博物院收藏一件永乐梅瓶例，尺寸远小于本品，绘莲花及花苞，曾展于《蓝白辉映：院藏明代青花瓷展》，台北，2016年，编号15；另比一重组梅瓶例，宣德年器并款，绘龙纹，近足处环纹与本品相近，出土自景德镇明代御窑遗址，图载于《明代宣德御窑瓷器》，北京，2018，图版61。
