Comments:Published PDF date : Qing Kangxi 1662-1722 Room 95 label text:PDF 818 Serving dish with peachesThe porcelain painter has created subtle gradations of colour within the peach using a palette of translucent enamels by applying green to coral pink to red in painted and blown-on trenches. Over the peach, itself a Chinese emblem of long life, the characters 萬壽 (wanshou, ‘ten thousand longevities’) are gilded in an elongated seal script. Outside the dish is painted with peaches, leafy branches and 壽 (shou ‘longevity’) characters. Wanshou was an imperial birthday greeting and it is probable this dish was made to celebrate the 60th birthday of the Kangxi emperor (lived AD1654–1722) on 12th April1713.Porcelain with underglaze cobalt-blue mark, translucent overglaze colours and gildingJingdezhen, Jiangxi province江西省, 景德鎮Qing dynasty, Kangxi mark and period, about AD 1713 PDF 818桃紋餐盤陶瓷工匠使用透明釉上彩料繪製及吹制桃紋，創造出一種由綠、珊瑚粉至紅色的細微漸變效果。桃本身在中國即被視作長壽的象徵，桃身上書金彩瘦長篆書“萬壽”（意為萬年長壽）。盤外壁繪桃、枝葉及“壽”字。萬壽为慶祝皇帝生日用语，此盤的製作可能用於慶祝1713年4月12日康熙皇帝（1654-1722年）的六十歲生日。瓷器，青花款，透明釉上彩，金彩江西省景德鎮清代，康熙，康熙款，約1713年
