  • Description:
    The bowl is made of six sunflower petals, with deep arc wall, flat bottom and short circle feet. The whole body is covered with blue glaze, and it is beige after burning. The glaze surface is spread with deep and clear lines. Gray appears at the thin part of the glaze along the mouth, glaze is applied to the foot border, and iron gray body is exposed when there is no glaze at the bottom edge. The bottom is engraved with a poem made by the Emperor Qianlong, “Chanting the Sunflower Bowl of the Ge Kiln”. At the end of the poem, “The Emperor Qianlong’s Second Day and the Emperor Mengxia’s Imperial Title” is written. It was learned from the reception that the time of Emperor Qianlong’s edict was the fortieth year of Qianlong’s reign (1775). In the poem, he expressed his belief that the sunflower bowl made in Zhangsheng kiln had a unique meaning with the words “The bowl is unique in meaning” and “Love for others gives birth to a famous symbol”. On this basis, by comparing the two lines in another poem “Laughing at sunflower rubbish is just like a martyr who is good at following his name” in the poem “Two Poems on Ge Kiln Plate”, we can further understand that he actually likened sunflower growth to the loyalty of officials;
