拍品描述

英文品名：A FAMILLE ROSE ZUN WITH A HUNDRED DEER AMONG PINE MOUNTAINS, BEARING A SIX-CHARACTER QIANLONG SEAL MARK 尺寸：H:44cm 碩大鹿頭尊，碩腹斂口，兩側塑珊瑚紅描金如意耳。器身通景繪百鹿圖：羣鹿或立或臥或奔跑，毛色分棕、白、紅諸色，徜徉於松樹山石、溪水之間。松針以綠彩精細點繪，山石以青花皴染。器形雄偉，繪工繁密。「百鹿圖」為清代瓷器常見題材，乾隆朝尤盛。鹿與「祿」諧音，「百鹿」即「百祿」，出自《詩經》「百祿是遒」，意謂多福多祿。鹿又為長壽仙獸，與鶴、松並列，傳說為仙人騎乘、西王母靈囿所蓄。羣鹿徜徉於松澗之間，兼取「祿位高陞」「長壽延年」雙重吉祥。鹿頭尊因兩側塑鹿首形耳而得名，是清代大形陳設瓷。 A massive pear-shaped zun vase with coral-red gilt ruyi handles on either side. The whole body is painted in famille rose with a Hundred Deer scene: deer in brown, white and red stand, lie and run among pine trees, blue-green rocks and streams. Pine needles are meticulously dotted in green, and rocks are rendered in underglaze-blue shading. It is an imposing Qing-period Hundred Deer vase. The Hundred Deer motif was a popular Qing porcelain subject, especially under the Qianlong emperor. The Chinese word for deer (lu) is a homophone for salary or emolument (lu), so a hundred deer reads as a hundred emoluments, an allusion to the Book of Odes meaning manifold blessings. Deer are also immortal animals associated with longevity, ridden by Daoist adepts and kept in the parks of the Queen Mother of the West. A herd of deer among pines and streams thus combines wishes for high office and long life. The vase type is called a deer-head zun after its two handles.
