Description

The General's Jar "Six Cranes in Spring" painted in Ji Lan is a rare work by the famous Chinese ceramic master Wang Xiliang, who used official kilns to make porcelain and aquatic products, as well as using firewood kiln firing technology with strict temperature control. The difficulty of the craftsmanship and the level of porcelain making are extremely high. The pattern of "deer and cranes in spring" appeared during the Ming Dynasty, but the earliest form of expression is not what we see today. In the Ming Dynasty, it was represented by six cranes. In Volume 94 of Yang Shen's "Outer Collection of Sheng'an", it is stated that "the language of the north is completely indistinguishable from cranes, so there is a painting of the six cranes, namely the Chinese toon tree, which represents the meaning of spring.". The overall design is upright, the painting strokes are smooth, the lines are powerful, and the three-dimensional feeling is extremely rich, making it a rare and excellent product. This piece was painted by Wang Xiliang with years of painstaking effort, and has extremely high collection value.
