About the Item

This Chinese porcelain plate, dating from the early 20th century Republic period, is a remarkable representation of both artistic skill and cultural symbolism. The plate features a meticulously executed scene of two boys in traditional Chinese attire, carrying a large peach between them. In Chinese folklore, the peach is a potent symbol of longevity and immortality, making this plate a rich tapestry of cultural narratives. Marked with a four-character apocryphal "Yang He Tang Zhi" seal mark in enamel blue to the center of the base, the plate pays homage to the artistic traditions of earlier periods of imperial workshops. The mark, although apocryphal, adds an additional layer of historical and cultural context, enhancing the plate's collectible value. The craftsmanship is of a high caliber, with intricate detailing on the boys' clothing and the peach, set against a well-balanced composition. The vibrant colors and fine brushwork are indicative of the skilled artisans of the Republic period, who were known for their ability to present traditional themes using well mastered techniques. This plate is not merely a decorative object; it is a piece of cultural history. Its blend of aesthetic excellence and symbolic depth makes it a compelling acquisition for collectors who appreciate the nuanced history of Chinese art. circa: early 20th Century, R.O.C.
