EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Ewer with European mounts, dating back to the late 17th century. Crafted by the Japanese School, this porcelain masterpiece is currently housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford in the UK. The ewer stands as a testament to cultural exchange and trade during this period, as it bears silver gilt mounts that were made in Europe for the export market. Meanwhile, its porcelain body was created at the Arita kiln-sites in Japan's Saga prefecture specifically for export purposes. Measuring approximately 16.5 x 20 x 9 cm with its lid on, this ewer boasts underglaze painting in blue and intricate gilded details. Its ornate design features delicate floral motifs that add a touch of elegance and charm to any setting. With its white base color complemented by vibrant blue accents, this ceramic piece serves as both a functional object and a work of art. It evokes a sense of sophistication and refinement while also reflecting the artistic sensibilities of both Japanese and European cultures. Whether displayed on a mantelpiece or used as tableware for tea-drinking rituals, this stunning ewer captivates viewers with its timeless beauty and historical significance. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can now appreciate every intricate detail of this remarkable artifact from centuries past.
