This print showcases a remarkable vase shaped like an archaic gu from the Qing dynasty, specifically dating back to 1662-1722. Crafted by an unknown creator, this exquisite piece of art is a testament to the rich heritage and artistic prowess of China. The vase, displayed against a pristine white background in this close-up shot, exhibits intricate details and vibrant colors that instantly catch the viewer's eye. The use of bassetaille technique adds depth and texture to its ceramic surface while the enamelled cloisonné decoration further enhances its beauty.
