About the Item

"Chinese Porcelain Plaque From The Republican Period – "hundred Children" Motif 1920–1940" Chinese Republican Period Famille Rose Porcelain Plaque – "Hundred Boys" Motif (c. 1920–1940) Dimensions: 27 x 34.5 cm Medium: Hand-painted porcelain with famille rose enamels Date: Circa 1920–1940, Republican Period Origin: Likely Jingdezhen, China Framed: In period wooden frame with original brass hanger Description: A finely executed Chinese porcelain plaque featuring the highly auspicious "Hundred Boys" (百子图 / Bǎi Zǐ Tú) motif, symbolizing prosperity, joy, and the Confucian ideal of a flourishing family line. This elegant scene depicts a lively group of children in a traditional garden setting, rendered with exceptional attention to detail and expressive individuality. The use of delicate famille rose (粉彩) enamels in soft pinks, aquas, yellows, and lavenders highlights the artistic refinement typical of late Qing and Republican-period craftsmanship. Each figure is uniquely painted, engaged in various playful and symbolic activities — a hallmark of the "Hundred Boys" theme. Executed in hand-painted overglaze enamels on a mid-sized porcelain plaque, this piece likely originated from Jingdezhen, China’s most renowned porcelain center. The plaque remains mounted in its original wooden frame with an ornate geometric brass hanger, consistent with early 20th-century taste. Condition: Excellent overall condition. No visible chips, cracks, or repairs. Minor wear to frame consistent with age. The plaque itself is free from restoration and retains its original glaze and enamel vibrancy. No markings on reverse (unmarked, as typical for domestic-use pieces of this period).
