AN EXCEPTIONAL AND RARE FAMILLE-ROSE
‘LANDSCAPE’ PANEL, BY TANG YING
QING DYNASTY, QIANLONG PERIOD, DATED
YIHAI YEAR, CORRESPONDING TO 1755
delicately painted with an idyllic lakeside scene of elegant
studios and pavilions overlooking the water, surrounded by
jagged rockwork and twisting trees all enameled in shades
of green and blue, the tips of the leaves turning yellow and
pink, the lake with a sampan amidst the calm waters left
unenameled save for the seafoam-green ripples, tall jagged
mountains rising vertically above and around, the depth
conveyed through the skillful use of paler enamels, negative
space, and washes of grisaille, a waterfall cascading down
one cliff face and a small thatched pavilion above a jagged
slope in the distance, the sky left plain and inscribed with a
poetic verse reading Jietian yanlang lai sanxia yingshui loutai
bie yijia (enshrouded by waves of mist, the gorges unveil;
reflected by the water, a pavilion stands), followed by an
inscription yihaizhiqiu zhiyu Zhushan guanshe (made at the
Zhushan official residence in the autumn of the yihai year),
accompanied by three seals reading pianshi, tao and zhu,
all within a wood frame, the reverse with a Japanese gilt-
lacquered temple scene
