Skilfully fashioned in the form of a boat, this box exemplifies the Qianlong Emperor’s penchant for extravagant and unusual playthings. With its tall rising stern and sophisticated design of roofed structures, this boat recalls the magnificent touring boats used by the emperor during his inspection tours of southern China. Such a boat is depicted in the scroll painting The Qianlong Emperor’s Southern Inspection Tour, by the court artist Xu Yang (active ca. 1750- after 1776), dated in accordance with 1770, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art New York, accession no. 1988.350a–d.
Lacquer models of boats are unusual, and those of such large dimensions are rare; a slightly smaller boat in the Palace Museum, Beijing, is illustrated in Gugong Bowuyuan cang diao qi [Carved lacquer in the collection of the Palace Museum], Beijing, 1985, pl. 362; another, was sold in our Hong Kong rooms, 27th April 2003, lot 289, and again in these rooms, 15th May 2019, lot 82; a pair was sold in our New York rooms, 19th September 2001, lot 43; and a further boat, in the collection of the Zhejiang Provincial Museum, Hangzhou, is illustrated in Wang Chunfa ed., Zhongguo guojia bowuguan guancang wenwu yanjiu congshu. Za xiang juan [Studies of the collections of the National Museum of China. Miscellaneous], Shanghai, 2018, pl. 19-2. See also a boat with the hull carved with dragons, sold in these rooms, 19th December 1980, lot 242.
