[Carved red waterfall view picture round box]
Carved red waterfall view picture round box, 7.7 cm high, 22 cm diameter
The box is round and flat. The wall and box body are decorated with yellow lacquer ground carved with red lacquer chrysanthemum, peony and other flower patterns. The cover is carved with a Changsong Pavilion. The front of the pavilion is fenced out of the atrium. A boy in the pavilion is cooking tea. In the atrium, an old Panasonic man looks at the waterfall on the opposite side of the mountain with a railing, and a boy stands behind him with a stick. The inside of the box cover is engraved with an official script filled with gold and a poem written by Qianlong:
The orchard is well made with vermilion, and the cane section is made of rare figures
No guests open the window to stare at the autumn words, and carry a child’s staff to listen to the wind
The title of the fine book is still distinguishable, and the descendants are not the same
Over the past three hundred years, it has been perfect. Why is the study so poor
At the end of the year, the “Emperor Qianlong and Shen Zhongchun” was signed, and the “Qian” and “Long” were stamped on two sides. The bottom of the box is engraved with a seal book filled with gold “Qianlong Royal Play”, and the foot is engraved with a single line of regular script “Ming Yongle Year”
The pattern of this box is very similar to the pattern of the eight square plates of the “Yang Maozao” red waterfall view map of the Yuan Dynasty, which is obviously copied during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty. The “orchard” mentioned in the poem refers to the orchard factory of the official lacquerware workshop set up by the early imperial supervisor in the imperial city, specializing in the production of carved and filled lacquer
