Lot 201. A blue and white baluster vase, Chenghua six-character mark, Kangxi period (1662-1722); 48.2cm (19in) high. Estimate £12,000 - 15,000 (€14,000 - 18,000). Photo: Bonhams.

The body raising on an elegantly-tapering foot, painted in vivid shades of cobalt blue with an audience scene, depicting a scholar holding a hu tablet arriving at a pavilion, received by a dignitary unfolding and announcing the Imperial edict, accompanied by martial generals and anticipated by further scholar-officials in the fenced garden beside pitted Taihu rocks, all framed within cloud scrolls, the waisted neck with two leafy sprigs issuing prunus and lily blossoms.

NoteCompare with a similarly-shaped blue and white vase, painted with scholars engaging in leisurely pursuits, which sold at Sotheby's London, 5 November 2014, lot 113.
