拍品資料及來源
飾山水人物圖的盒蓋甚為少見，此盒蓋上以紅、青、綠飾山水風景，明麗活潑，受明代木版畫影響。當時版畫或描繪章回小說場景、或臨摹畫作，匠藝精妙。花鳥蟲獸最為常見，另漸見山水人物裝飾，材質亦見豐富，以雕漆尤值一提。雕漆及陶瓷圓盒常以山水人物紋樣裝飾，兩側飾花葉紋，本盒的形狀與設計以此為靈感。然而盒身並未見以掐絲作菱形飾紋，獨樹一格。
類似蓋盒未有記錄可考。蘇黎世雷特伯格博物館於1985年舉行的「中國琺瑯，皮耶·烏德瑞收藏」展覽中曾展出一例，圖錄編號174，描繪亭台庭院內人物，色彩斑斕，應為十七世紀所作，原屬沃特·塞奇威克夫人與皮耶·烏德瑞舊藏，展覽中另有一山水人物台屏，雲紋與此蓋盒類似，圖錄編號170。大維·威爾舊藏中有一例可較，應為明初所作，盒身飾一牡丹，枝葉葳蕤，飾葡萄藤，現藏於巴黎裝飾藝術博物館內，載於比阿特麗絲·凱特編輯之《掐絲琺瑯，元明清時期的中國琺瑯》，紐約，2011年，第36頁，圖3.10。
