Four Wang Bu Blue & White Porcelain Panels: Four blue and white porcelain wall panels depicting landscapes, each with calligraphy and artist's marks on the upper left. Framed in wooden panels which are carved in bat and peach motifs top and bottom.
Attributed to Wang Bu (1898-1968). Wang Bu's father Wang Xiuqing, was a blue and white porcelain painter during the reigns of Tongzhi and Guangxu of the Qing dynasty. It was common for children to follow in their father's footsteps, and at the age of 9, Wang Bu was apprenticed to Xu Yousheng, an artisan in blue and white porcelain painting at Jingdezhen. He completed his apprenticeship in 1912. After the closure of the imperial workshops at Jingdezhen, Wang Bu made a living painting bird feeders, before he was hired by the famous ceramic artist Wu Aisheng to make reproductions of Ming and Qing porcelains. This laid the foundation for his later innovation.
From the time Wang Bu arrived at Jingdezhen in 1907, till his death in 1968, he created numerous ceramic art works with underglaze and overglaze enamels, paste-on-paste carving, and incised decoration. However, it was his work in underglaze blue and white decoration, that earned him, in his later years, the title of qinghua dawang (the king of blue and white). 31" X 6 1/2" Shipping: We are unable to ship this item.
