• Description:
  Slightly skim the mouth, deep arc wall, and circle the foot. The inner and outer walls of the whole vessel are painted with white glaze. About three quarters of the outer walls are painted with green landscapes and figures. Villages and small bridges are visible between the landscapes. Under the eaves of one house, two people are chatting with each other. One person is driving a boat to fish in the stream, one person is fishing by the stream, one person is sitting beside the stream, one person is holding a fan, and two people are working on a shed by the stream. In the remaining blank area of the outer wall, there is an inscription in ink: “There are many green trees in Liancun Village, and there are orioles singing in the long sun.” Before and after the poem, red materials are used to depict the three seals of “longevity”, “mountain height” and “water length”. The three seals are different. The inner wall of the bowl is pure white, simple and without decorative patterns. White glaze is applied to the inside and outside of the circle foot, and a circle of body is exposed at the foot end. On the outsole, there is a blue book “made in Yongzheng’s year” in imitation Song style regular script, with two side frames. The shape, size and style of this piece are the same as those of the old porcelain 13986, with similar patterns but slightly different details
