清乾隆 剔紅「蘭亭宴集」及「夜遊赤壁」圖
掛屏一對

One panel depicts Wang Xizhi at the famous
Orchid Pavilion gathering near Shanyin,
702 Zhejiang Province, to celebrate the ‘Spring
Purifying Ceremony’ in the ninth year of the
Yonghe reign (353 AD). This, as well as Su
Dongpo’s visit to the site where he wrote his
famous history poem Ode to the Red Cliff,
are among the two most popular designs in
Chinese art. See for example a longer and
narrower lacquer screen depicting the same
scene, Qianlong, in the Qing Court Collection,
illustrated in Furniture of the Ming and Qing
Dynasties (II), Beijing, 2002, pl.181. See also a
rare Imperial cinnabar lacquer ‘Orchid Pavilion’
panel, Qianlong, which was sold at Sotheby’s
Hong Kong, 23 October 2005, lot 364.
