'Three Friends Of Winter' Motif Jar, C 1725, Qing Dynasty, Yongzheng Era
Located in seoul, KR
"Three Friends of Winter" motif: pine (song), bamboo (zhu), and plum (prunus or mei), which are known for their ability to thrive during the winter months. The pine and plum blossom in cold conditions, while the bamboo remains upright under the weight of snow, collectively representing steadfastness, perseverance, and resilience. This motif became a popular auspicious design by the 17th century, not only in ceramics but also in wood carvings and paintings of the period.
An example of this motif can be seen in a saucer-dish from the Qing dynasty, specifically from the Qianlong period (1736-1795). The dish features the "Three Friends of Winter" in underglaze cobalt blue, centered within a medallion. This design reflects a combination of aesthetic beauty and symbolic meaning, illustrating the high level of craftsmanship and cultural significance embodied in Qing dynasty ceramics...
