拍品描述
AN IMARI PORCELAIN ‘TIGER AND DRAGON’ SQUARE FLASKJapan, late Edo period (1615-1868)The square body with slanted shoulders gently tapering towards the base and rising to a short waisted neck with lipped rim. Finely decorated to each side with alternating panels enclosing a long-tailed tiger amidst bamboo logs spotted by a dragon subtly emerging among the billowing clouds and a carp leaping with its body gracefully arched out of the stirring currents of the river under flowering tree branches, all enameled with gilt, red, and green accents against an underglaze-blue ground. The panels interspersed with gilt brocade patterns and the shoulders decorated with a lozenge diaper filled with alternating scrolls and flowerheads, centered on each side with lobed reserves depicting stylized lion masks. The neck encircled by scrolling tendrils and further flowerheads below the gilt rim. The base left unglazed revealing the creamy white ware.HEIGHT 21.5 cmCondition: Overall good condition with expected wear, traces of use, manufacturing irregularities, minor rubbing to enamels, few touchups, drilled to base with associated old fill.The tiger and dragon are Chinese cosmological symbols of the balancing forces in the world, yin (the feminine aspect) and yang (the masculine aspect). The tiger's roar is also said to generate wind, and the dragon clouds. The screens may have originally been meant to express the fluctuating nature of the world as envisioned in the practice of military divination, or forecasting, based on the Yijing (Book of Changes).
