清雍正 黃地綠彩嬰戲圖盌 《大清雍正年製》款

finely potted with full rounded sides rising from a slightly tapered foot to a flared rim, the exterior incised with a continuous scene of boys at play in a balustraded garden, some playing the drums or the cymbals, others simply waving toys, with two pine trees dividing the scene and the swirling waters of a lake beyond, all between a border of upright lappets at the base and a stylised floral border at the rim, the designs picked out in brilliant apple-green against a yellow ground, the interior glazed yellow, the countersunk base inscribed in underglaze blue with a six-character reign mark
