Richly decorated jardinière of considerable size and deep sound from the Transitional period
This Chinese porcelain bowl of superior size dates to the 17th century and shows on all sides a decoration with fine blue underglaze painting.
The bulbous body rises on a round foot rim, tapers slightly downwards and forms a slightly convex mouth.
The inside is glazed in white, only the foot shows the untreated color of the porcelain.
The wall is decorated with an encircling landscape painting that invites to marvel and admire. A detailed mountain landscape with trees, pagodas, rolling by clouds, fishermen, and birds in the sky can be seen.
The jardinière has a balanced shape and comes together with an open work wooden base of a later date.
