拍品資料及來源

此對盤畫工精湛,色彩豔麗。兩盤繪飾相同,成對而作,實為罕珍,或為孤品。此類「賀壽盤」,口沿均書「萬壽無疆」四字,為皇帝御用之祝壽賀詞,乃為康熙五十二年(1713年)聖袓六十大壽時所製,工藝精美,皆入世界著名收藏 。Margaret Medley 於其書中提到,此類賀壽瓷品質極佳,胎極薄,且白皙透明,彷彿完美無瑕,見 Margaret Medley,《The Chinese Potter》,牛津,1976年,頁243-244。此對盤或為郎廷極於景德鎮任督陶官時所製,郎廷極為中國歷史上最著名的御窰督陶官之一,見林業強,〈Lang Tingji (1663-1715) and the porcelain of the late Kangxi period〉,《東方陶瓷學會會刊》,卷68,2003年,第4期,頁40。

賀壽盤數量甚少,尺寸紋飾皆各異,多繪家喻戶曉之道教「麻姑獻壽」圖,或蟲鳥等自然題材。見少量與本拍品所繪果枝瑞鳥紋相類之賀壽盤例,然鳥之形態及果枝種類各有不同。本拍品應為拍賣所見唯一一對賀壽盤例。

與本拍品所繪紋飾相似之賀壽盤例甚罕。上海博物館藏一例,刊於林業強,前述出處,圖19A。另有一例售於香港蘇富比1985年5月22日,編號192。此紋飾亦見於尺寸較小(14.4公分)之賀壽盤,斯德哥爾摩東亞博物館藏一例,載於《Oriental Ceramics. The World’s Great Collections》,卷8,東京,1982年,彩圖60。倫敦大英博物館大維德基金會藏相類賀壽盤四例,見於《Illustrated Catalogue of Qing Enamelled Wares in the Percival David Foundation of Chinese Art》,第2部,倫敦,1991年再版;其中果枝瑞鳥紋盤兩例,編號812及891;鴛鴦戲水紋盤一例,編號A836;及麻姑獻壽圖盤一例,編號890(無圖)。

還可比較一賀壽盤例,繪一鷹棲於銀杏枝頭,錄於《The Barbara Hutton Collection of Chinese Ceramics》,檀香山藝術學院,檀香山,1956年,圖版VII,及《徐氏藝術館.揭幕展覽誌慶圖錄》,徐氏藝術館,香港,1991年,圖版108,後曾兩次售於倫敦蘇富比,分別於1971年7月1日,編號182,及1976年4月6日,編號167,後又售於香港佳士得1996年11月3日,編號586。另見一草蟲圖賀壽盤例,刊於 Anthony du Boulay,《Christie’s Pictorial History of Chinese Ceramics》,倫敦,1984年,頁227,圖2,以及康蕊君,《Chinese Ceramics from the Meiyintang Collection》,倫敦,1994-2010年,卷4,編號1727;後售於倫敦佳士得1977年12月12日,編號198,及香港佳士得2002年4月29日,編號553,後又兩次售於香港蘇富比2004年10月31日,編號103,及2012年4月4日,編號19。
