Full title: A rare Chinese semi-eggshell famille rose 'rooster' tea cup and saucer, Baiyun Shanren 白雲山人 seal mark, YongzhengDescription:Dia.: 11,5 cm (the saucer)Dia.: 7 cm - H.: 4 cm (the cup) A composite motif of a cockerel and peony represents wealth and success. The first character of the term cockerel in Chinese gong ji is a homophone of the first character of gong ming (official position), and the peony has long been associated with nobleness since the Tang dynasty. Provenance:- An important American private collection. Ref.: - The British Museum, inv. no. PDF A.835, for a set of twelve tea cups and saucers of the same design and measurements and with the same seals, where they are on display. (direct link available on rm-auctions.com) - The Victoria & Albert Museum, accession no. C.1071 & A-1917, for a set which also bears a cyclical date Jiazhen corresponding to 1724, where it is on display. (direct link available on rm-auctions.com) The artist name 'Baiyun Shanren' (Hermit of the White Cloud Mountain) was however mistaken by both museums as 'Baishi Shanren' (Hermit of the White Stone Mountain). Although the aliases 'Baishi' and 'Baiyun Jushi' are both related to one of the earliest and most famous Cantonese enamellers, Tang Jintang (active in the first half of the 18th C.), they can also have been produced by Tang Jintang's studio. For more about the career and style of Tang Jintang, see Gao Yang: 'A Pair of Canton Enamel Porcelain Masterpieces in the Rijksmuseum,' in Aziatische Kunst, October 2018, Vol. 48, No. 2, pp. 54-59. - A. Varela Santos, Uma Coleccao Particular, Yongzheng, A Private Collection, Estoril, Portugal, 2005, pp.16-17, no. 2, for an example which was formerly in the W. Martin-Hurst Collection.- Honey, A Guide to the Pottery and Porcelain of the Far East, Oxford, 1924, p. 90, fig. 128, illustrates a ruby-back saucer painted with a basket of flowers and fruit also in the British Museum. It is signed by the same artist and inscribed 'a Canton picture', indicating that indeed he was working in Guangzhou (Canton).Condition:The absence of a condition report does not imply that a lot is in perfect condition.Condition reports are provided on request.

Bukowskis Auktioner, 3 June 2019, lot 651. A private collection in Finland, acquired from the above. The catalog entry from Bukowski, dated 5 June 2019, confirms the dating above. Sigurd Yngve Euren (1890-1990) was a Swedish engineer, who initially visited China in 1917 in order to set up a net of radio masts. After this, Euren began constructing bridges primarily along in the Yangtze River and its many offshoots. After a couple of years, he moved to Shanghai and set up his own tea export company which was located along the Bund (Waitan). After some time, Euren and his family moved back to Sweden, bringing a large collection of Chinese art with them. Condition: Good condition with expected old wear, minuscule nicks and minor casting flaws. Light surface scratches to the base. Some areas with faint loss of patina.Weight: 2,478 g Dimensions: Height 21.4 cm Little is known about the historic figure Shisou. The earliest reference in the Zhongguo meishujia renming cidian ('Dictionary of Chinese Artists') comes from the Luochuang xiaodu and is presumably from the same source as published in Zhongguo yishujia zhenglue ('Brief Introduction of Chinese Artists). Shisou is listed there only as a late Ming dynasty monk without any further biographical information. A number of vessels and sculptures from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century bear his name, sometimes in combination with a hall name, Jinyu tang ('Hall of Prosperity').Auction result comparison: Type: Related Auction: Bonhams London, 7 November 2019, lot 13 Price: GBP 12,562 or approx.
