Description

Appreciating the bottle, with a slender neck, slightly folded shoulders, a long arched belly, and circular feet below. The bottle has a beautiful shape, stands tall and graceful, and is elegant and charming. The whole body is coated with white glaze, with a brilliant and unparalleled glaze color, as smooth as jade. The painting depicts two birds in blue and white, with a "Qianlong Year System" inscription at the bottom, which is a typical work of Wang Buzhi, a master of porcelain painting in the Republic of China|| Wang Bu's early works mainly imitated ancient blue and white porcelain, and most of his works imitated Kangxi blue and white porcelain. Due to his intelligence, eagerness to learn, and high intelligence, he fully understood the intricacies of Kangxi's blue and white porcelain techniques in the techniques of wiping and dyeing. However, during this period, most of his works did not include Wang Bu's famous works, only the "Qianlong Year System" or "Qing Yongzheng Year System" and other entrusted funds, making it difficult for later generations to distinguish between truth and falsehood when facing his unrefined works. This phenomenon is mainly due to the rarity of Wang Bu's works in the world, and the rarity of those who recognize Wang Bu himself, making it difficult for viewers to identify the key points| The painting technique of this blue and white double bird painting vase is clearly different from others. When painting, it first uses blue material to slightly render and coat the un dried porcelain body, and then applies blue and white again after the porcelain body is completely dry. Under this painting method, the blue and white works produced have clear levels, with a green and delicate color that is irresistible, and the artistic conception of the picture is more profound. In addition, Wang Bu's brushstrokes are delicate, mostly focusing on "nail head and mouse tail strokes". When starting, he needs to pause the brush, and when finishing, he gradually lifts and closes it. He also uses traditional techniques such as knife and axe cracking and linen cracking to paint mountains, rocks, and trees. His style is fresh and generous, expressing a strong personal style. Therefore, he has stood alone in the past century, and no one has followed suit. After fully understanding the artistic characteristics of Wang Bu, we can extract works that only belong to Wang Bu's artistic style from the numerous Republic of China blue and white porcelain, and collect and enjoy them| This vase has a graceful and exquisite shape, with exquisite body and glaze. The composition of the painting is quite reminiscent of the early Qing Dynasty. The craftsmanship is exquisite and seasoned, and the brushstrokes are flexible and interesting. The blue and white hair color is green, and great attention is paid to the unity between decoration and vessel shape. It not only highlights the image of blue and white, but also has a unique and ingenious design, showcasing the different styles of a generation of "blue and white kings" for collectors, and has great collection value| Wang Bu, with the courtesy name Renyuan and the courtesy name Zhuxi, was born in Fengcheng County, Jiangxi Province. From arriving in Jingdezhen in 1907 to passing away in 1968, he worked in ceramic art for more than 60 years, creating tens of thousands of underglaze, overglaze, pile carving, and carved porcelain throughout his life, particularly skilled in blue and white.
