European landscapes in panels, sold at Christie’s London, 5th
October 1970, lot 78; and another with an apocryphal Jiaqing
mark, attributed to the Guangxu period (1875-1908), sold in

European landscapes are more commonly found adorning
vessels created during the Qianlong period; see a vase
decorated with a European landscape enclosed within circular

Für Kunsthandwerk, Berlin, 1987, cat. no. 203; and another
example sold in our Los Angeles rooms, 29th October 1973,
