拍品資料及來源

本品碩美,列傳世磁州窰之大器,白地黑彩互為映襯,對比鮮明,令人印象深刻。相若器形繪黑彩紋飾者甚罕,僅於少數世界知名收藏個例可見,然其尺寸、造型及紋飾各異。故此例梅瓶可謂獨一無二。

相近造形及紋飾者似僅兩例。一例屬日本收藏,尺寸略小,錄於《陶磁全集13:宋の磁州窰》,東京,1958年,圖版33,後展並刊於衰豊,《Freedom of Clay and Brush Through Seven Centuries in Northern China: Tz'u-chou Type Wares 960 - 1600 A.D》,印第安納波利美術館,印第安納波利,1980年,圖179。編者言,此類造形器,用於盛酒,於十二至十四世紀燒造於不同窰口。然此類器常飾枝葉紋,其筆觸纖柔,由中心外散,為河南禹縣窰口紋飾之典型。另一例,其肩上部飾蓮葉紋一周,載於《白と黒の競演―中國磁州窰系陶器の世界》,大阪市立美術館,大阪,2002年,圖錄81。亦可比一較小梅瓶例,造形相異,售於紐約蘇富比1986年3月12日,編號235。

有相類梅瓶數例,可資參考,飾相類枝葉紋樣,然其紋以彩繪線紋平行相隔。北京故宮博物院藏有兩例,分別錄於《中國陶瓷全集》,上海,1999-2000年,卷7,圖版201及《故宮博物院藏文物珍品全集.兩宋瓷器(上)》,香港,1996年,圖版152(圖一)。另存一例,日本政府將其定為重要藝術品,刊於《白と黒の競演―中国磁州窰系陶器の世界》,前述出處,編號82。堪萨斯城納爾遜阿特金斯藝術館亦藏一例,可作比較,錄於衰豊,前述出處,編號68。亦比一例,藏於東京出光美術館,圖載《中國磁州窯なごみと味わい》,東京出光美術館,東京,2005年,編號3,以及一例,售於倫敦蘇富比1986年6月10日,編號163。
