Two Large Covered Jars
Ceramics- Qing Dynasty
1700- Early Modern
The Frick Collection
Painted with a deep and rich pink ground (famille rose), this jar and its pair, 1915.8.58, feature polychrome chrysanthemums and vignettes in reserve. The main panels on both sides of each jar depict an elderly scholar reading a book to a young boy. Flowers, birds, and domestic fowl appear in fan- and ribbon-shaped panels. These decorative motifs derive from pattern books commonly used in eighteenth-century Chinese porcelain factories. Famille rose appeared in the 1730s as a result of the importation from Europe of purple of Cassius (a pigment obtained from gold chloride).Source: Vignon, Charlotte.
