About the Item

A Japanese Kakiemon-style bird, Birds (magpie) and Three friends of winter dish. Painted by by a Dutch painter to decorate a Chinese porcelain blank. The scene and quality of painting is amazing. Three Friends of Winter These are pine, Prunus mume and bamboo. Both the pine and the bamboo remain green throughout the winter, while the early blossoms of the Prunus mume are harbingers of spring. In China the combination of the positive characteristics attributed to each motif represented the ideal character of the Confucian scholar They became a subject in Japanese painting in the 15th century, and are also found on kakiemon porcelain. The rounded surface of a porcelain bowl lends itself beautifully to their depiction, allowing them to unfold around the surface. The many imitations by European manufacturers bear witness to the popularity of this motif in Europe. Bird (Magpie) Prominently present in many kakiemon designs is a tree branch with one or two birds. These birds are hard to identify: they may not be representations of actual species, although most bear some resemblance to bush warblers. It is probable that these images can be traced back to Chinese illustrated books and/or paint- ings by the Kano School. This motif seems to have been well received in Europe. since it was taken up as an exotic subject', whereby the branch with the bird assumed emblematic characteristics. reference; Kakiemon porcelain, menno Fitzki Condition Overall Condition: 1 firing flaw to rim only, no damage.
