PROVENANCE
Michael B. Weisbrod, New York.
The attractive ribs adorning this jar were carefully applied in slip onto the surface of the vessel before the application of glaze. During fi ring the glaze pulled away from the ribs to result in a striking contrast of delicate white lines emerging from a glossy black ground. A similar jar from the collection of Mr. and Mrs. Janos Szekeres was included in the exhibition Hare’s Fur, Tortoiseshell and Partridge Feathers, Arthur M. Sackler Museum, Harvard University Art Museums, Cambridge, MA, 1995, cat. no. 61, where it is noted that these ribs were fi rst used on ceramics during the Tang dynasty in imitation of Tang lacquer and silver, and emerged as a decorative category by the 12th century (p. 176).
