12.75 x 12.75 x 14.5" Early Peoples Republic Chinese jardinere, with personal gift dedication. Hand-painted on the vase is a complex continuous scene, featuring many figures engaging in a variety of scholarly and recreational activities, as well as decorative landscape elements. The painting itself displays a rare level of mastery in its precise detail, perfect composition, and expert rendering of the figures. Dense, multicolored patterning borders the scene and decorates the top side of the lip. Personal inscription reads, "To: Messrs Wing Hing Lung Co., Habana, Cuba
From: Chun Loong Sang, Hong Kong," With text or signatures, written in Chinese, on either side.
Gold leafing at the rim has some wear, otherwise excellent condition. No markings on the bottom of the piece. Paypal not accepted for this transaction. Wire transfer only.
The jardiniere was actually signed by a rather famous artist, Wei Yongsheng and dated by him to the year Gengyin which corresponds to 1950. Wei Yongsheng (1910-1995) was a student of Wang Qi, one of the Eight Friends of Zhushan. He taught at the Jingdezhen Ceramics School before.
