CATALOGUE NOTES

A famille verte porcelain yen-yen vase painted with a scenes from The Western Chamber: warriors in a landscape, two equestrians, one with a halberd charging. The scene overlooked by scholars on a balcony. The foot with stylized bands and scrollwork, the neck with a farmer presenting an ox to an official, shaded by an attendant, all in a leafy landscape.
