A MASSIVE AND SUPERBLY DECORATED FAMILLE VERTE 'ROMANCE OF THREE KINGDOMS’ ROULEAU VASE

KANGXI PERIOD (1662-1722)

The cylindrical body is exquisitely decorated with a continuous scene from chapter twenty of the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, in which the Emperor Xianzong leads a hunting expedition with the heroes Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in the entourage, and Cao Cao successfully shoots a deer after the Emperor’s multiple failed attempts, implying his ambition for the throne. The slanted shoulder is decorated with medallions containing beribboned emblems against a diaper ground below the neck decorated with Shoulao (the Star God of Longevity) presenting a peach to a child held by the Star God of Blessings and accompanied by the Star God of Prosperity. The galleried rim is encircled by an iron-red band of formal scrolls.

30 in. (76 cm.) high
