The inscription on the present seal comprises two parts: a two-character
inscription on the top carved in a horizontal line above an inscription in
vertical line below, flanked by a pair of chilong, which is consistent with the
standard format of seal inscriptions with imperial origin, such as the seal
impression on one of the seals on the pair of Prince Kung tianhuang seals
sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 1 June 2016, lot 3205.
Xiangshang Luoshe is a phrase used to praise one’s literary talent.
According to the Imperial Diary of the Emperor Kangxi, on his Third
Southern Expedition, the Emperor wrote a calligraphy bearing this phrase
for the scholar-official Li Zongkong (1620-1689).
