拍品資料及來源

論形制、設計和畫風,本品可稱十四世紀青花瓷典型之作。小圓唇,短直頸,豐肩,弧腹漸歛,臥足。瓷罐線條自然流暢,恢弘穩健,氣派大方。此類大罐,形制可上溯宋代龍泉窰、青白、磁州窰等,惟元代綴以層次分明之青花紋飾,為其形增添新鮮美感。

本品飾纏枝牡丹、水波、卷草及蓮瓣紋,乃元代瓷器常見題材。此類大罐多屬出口中東、東南亞之外銷瓷,然從考古發掘器例可見,中國本土也有使用。每罐從拉坯、繪畫、上釉至完成均為獨立製作。

此類大罐肩上多飾纏枝蓮紋,例見上海博物館收藏,載於汪慶正,《青花釉裏紅》,香港,1993年,圖版24;另一作例售於紐約蘇富比2007年9月18日,編號246;第三例售於倫敦蘇富比2010年11月10日,編號32。 Charles A. Dana收藏一罐例,飾四時花卉紋,2000年9月20日售於紐約蘇富比,編號101。
