Enamel colored porcelain, also known as “porcelain body painting enamel”, was successfully fired in the 51st year of the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty. It was greatly developed during the Yongzheng period and declined since the Qianlong period. Although there are only more than 70 years left, the development of ancient Chinese colored porcelain has reached its peak and produced a large number of excellent and world-famous colored porcelain masterpieces. This bowl has a very thin body, belongs to semi-bodiless, and its inner and outer bottom glaze is as white as snow and as translucent as jade. The picture is a collection of poems, books and paintings, with bright colors and exquisite brushwork. It is one of the representative works of enamel color in Yongzheng Dynasty.
