描述

  • 《大清乾隆年製》款
  • porcelain
well modelled after archaic bronze dou prototypes, the deep rounded body subtly bordered with raised fillets and rising to a short constricted neck and lipped rim, supported on a tall splayed foot bordered with a groove along its edge, the shoulder flanked by a pair of small loop handles picked out with short scrolls, the bowl with a frieze of stylised wan symbols of angular scrolls above a band of pendent lappets enclosing stylised taotie masks, the bands divided by a thin border of diagonal striations, all above petal lappets and scrollwork painted to the shapely foot, the countersunk base with a six-character seal mark, the domed cover centred with a bud finial decorated with a floret and four petals, surrounded by stylised angular scrollwork and taotie masks echoing the designs of the stembowl

拍品資料及來源

青花仿古環蓋豆,器形紋飾獨特不凡,首見於康熙瓷,製作過程極為繁複困難。造形取材高古青銅器「豆」,圓腹單足,模造弦紋及細緻環耳,器形可溯至新石器時代陶器,東周(公元前五至六世紀)始見青銅豆禮器,用於筵席盛肉。匠師巧思創新,以青花瓷結合仿古紋飾及器形,懷古猶見新穎。

著錄僅見一件相似環耳豆,售於倫敦蘇富比1976年7月6日,編號208,及1978年5月27日,編號660。北京故宮博物院藏一件康熙青花豆,為此件拍品之雛本,刊於《清順治康熙朝青花瓷》,北京,2005年,圖版190,康熙器形更見圓鼓,蓋與器身輪廓相連成球形,乾隆作例蓋肩圓廣,紋飾則幾為一致,惟蓋沿飾如意紋,鈕足作六瓣蟬紋,乾隆例蓋沿改綴回紋,蓋面作四葉蟬紋。

上述器形與紋飾改變,或因乾隆帝信仰藏傳佛教影響而來。器身口沿下內束,蓋圓,若似藏傳佛教中無量壽佛之長壽寶瓶,屬祭典重要法器,盛裝聖水與藥草;參考北京故宮博物院藏一件銀瓶,展出於《盛世華章》,皇家藝術學院,倫敦,2005年,編號57,同錄還有一件乾隆瓷仿金屬長壽寶瓶,藏於倫敦維多利亞與艾伯特博物館,編號56。蓋面四方蟬紋,宛若十字金剛杵,原為兵器,後演變為法器,象徵金剛般永恆不可摧,雷電般無上之力。

紐約蘇富比曾售出一件高古青銅豆,器身亦作弦紋,2014年3月18/19日,編號113。參考倫敦維多利亞與艾伯特博物館藏一件青銅豆,蓋為公元前五世紀,器身十四世紀,乃後造以為配之,紋飾近於此件拍品,刊於柯玫瑰,《Later Chinese Bronzes》,倫敦,1990年,圖版58;一件乾隆掐絲琺瑯豆現存台北故宮博物院,錄於《明清琺瑯器展覽圖錄》,台北,1999年,圖版54。瓷造豆形制多較簡化,不帶環耳,施單色釉,如瀋陽故宮博物院藏一件乾隆霽藍釉豆,載於《瀋陽故宮博物院院藏文物精粹.瓷器卷(下)》,瀋陽,2007年,圖版10;北京故宮藏一對月白釉豆,展出於《盛世華章》,皇家藝術學院,倫敦,2006年,編號34。此類瓷豆造型應取材早明,參考清宮舊藏一件宣德青花纏枝花紋豆,現藏北京故宮,錄於《故宮博物院藏文物珍品全集.青花釉裏紅(上)》,香港,2000年,圖版131。
