Modeled closely after a Yongle or Xuande period prototype, the present bowl pays respect to the much heralded blue and white porcelains of the early Ming dynasty. There were a few variations of these early lianzi (lotus seed) bowls and all were highly desirable with examples being found in the Ardebil Shrine, Iran and in Europe as seen in a painting of "Madonna and Child" by the 15th century artist Francesco Benaglio in the National Gallery of Art, Washington DC. For an illustration of the Yongle period example see Jessica Harrison-Hall, Ming Ceramics in the British Museum, London, 2001, no. 3:30.
The early Qing dynasty aesthetic embraced the classical taste of the preceding Ming dynasty as a means to show respect for Han traditions while strengthening a new era of Manchu dominance. The present bowl pays homage to the past but its technical artistry also declares the masterful skill of Qing dynasty artisans; a message to be appreciated on several levels.
