A Transitional Wucai Vase, 17th Century.

Trumpet shaped, the decoration devided into three sections, the two lower ones decorated with flowers, the top part decorated with a scene from court depicting the emperor and empress seated on thrones in front of a screen. Height 47,5 cm.

Two rimcracks, old repair to rim.

Provenance

From the Collection of Emil Hultmark (1872-1943). Emil Hultmark was one of the co-founders of the ‘Kinaklubben’ (China Club) in Stockholm in the 1920's with Carl Kempe (1884-1967) and the Crown Prince Gustav Adolf. He is a well known collector and his beautiful home and summer house is well documented in the magazine 'Svenska Hem i ord och bild' in the 1930's, which provide us with a fascinating window into this golden age of European collecting.

Literature

The scene presumably Thanksgiving thrice- the 80th birthday gathering of the Tang dynaty general Guo Ziyi.
