題詩:
秋澄沙浦明如鏡,滿目離離芰荷勝;
瘦幹欹波風力斜,碧葉擎珠露華淨。
穠艷偏將晚節淩,蒼茫更有蕪葭映;
寒香暗逐宿鷗飛,冷紅殘覆遊魚泳。
泰娘老去猶餘媚,倚奩妝罷明眸靚;
忽然風入漢宮秋,綵女三千舞腰競。
維時有客泛波心,秋色瀲瀲饒幽興;
但見嬋娟且耐時,誰知搖落行金令。
人生得意且行樂,閒吟何必論聲病;
明朝短棹倘重來,平池猶有餘芳賸。

秋色㶑㶑舞群芳

乾隆一朝造瓷樣式繁多,時有創新。此扁壺造型精美華艷,符合當時造瓷風氣,而且裝飾細緻巧究,可洞窺高宗雅趣。本品採明初扁壺器形,壺身以鬪彩纏枝福壽紋為地,兩面開光,一面畫粉彩花卉圖,另一面題詩,加綴如意雙耳,極富巧趣。乾隆個人品味喜好與本朝製瓷發展之息息相關,此壺糅合多種瓷器工藝,悅目非凡,可為一例證。

本壺正面開光繪粉彩花卉圖,妍葩自然可愛,邊框描金,與背面題詩相應。花卉秀雅清新,渙明末名家惲壽平花卉繪畫之風。惲壽平,號南田,「清初六大家」之一,尤擅「沒骨」花卉畫法,不鉤輪廓,直接用色、墨渲染成形。其畫法獨闢新徑,筆下花卉婉約柔美,若隨風輕擺。惲氏師古法,重用鮮明豔色,如紅、紫、明綠,將之重新融入中國繪畫。雍正、乾隆二帝皆甚愛惲氏之畫,康熙晚期新創粉彩,遂以惲氏花卉意韻入瓷。

本壺以如意為雙耳,別出心裁,可見其吉祥寓意深得乾隆聖心。壺身更以鬪彩畫纏枝瑞蓮及礬紅彩蝠五隻,寓意鴻福齊天。

此扁壺造型清秀悅目,鬪彩開光畫粉彩,類例寥寥,風格悉甚相近,似同出一匠之手。倫敦蘇富比2001年11月14日曾售一例,編號116,與本品成對,後再售於紐約佳士得2015年3月15/16日,編號3160。北京故宮博物院藏兩件扁壺,圖見葉佩蘭,《鬪彩名瓷》,台北,1993年,圖版112及113。此類扁壺,觀感自然和諧,蓋因工匠巧用礬紅、綠彩為飾,二色融入整體造型,如本品之如意雙耳、鬪彩纏枝蓮紋及紅菊,色調互襯相補。

現存相類乾隆年款鬪彩開光粉彩圖、但風格迥異之扁壺,可見一例,繪蝠、桃、石榴及佛手,配雙龍耳,錄於耿寶昌,《明清瓷器鑑定》,香港,1993年,圖478,及《徐氏藝術館陶瓷IV.清代》,香港,1995年,圖版176,曾售於香港蘇富比1982年11月8日,編號204,再售於香港佳士得1990年10月8日,編號525。另有一瓶,鼓腹,飾鬪彩纏枝雜寶,四面開光略凹,入以粉彩繪十二花神,曾售於紐約佳士得1990年11月29日,編號286。可再比較天津博物館藏鬪彩扁壺,飾纏枝花紋,中心則繪人物,圖見《鬪彩名瓷》,台北,1993年,圖版116。
