2022-6-23

英国女王的瓷器藏品，品种丰富，中西结合，每一件都是精品，百看不厌。清末广州十叁行的潘趣碗，这里也有一个：

• A Chinese porcelain punch bowl with rounded, spreading sides. Painted around the outside, in black outline and colors, is a view of the 13 hongs (also known as the Canton factories) on the waterfront at Canton, with the Dutch, British, Swedish, French, and other flags flying and boats in the foreground. On the foot is a red-and-gold key-fret and spearhead border, and inside, a green and red border with pendant frieze of vases among scrolling motifs, and in the center, a roundel with a flower vase within a green border of fruit and flowers.
  
  Bowls painted with this subject were produced for export from about 1780, with the American hong and flag being added to the scene in about 1785.
