说明：These delicately painted panels represent the new styles pursued by porcelain artists upon the fall of the Qing dynasty. With imperial orders discontinued, craftsmen in the porcelain center of Jingdezhen were released from the constraints of the court and eagerly sought to develop new markets. In 1928 eight of the leading artists formed a group called Yueman hui (Full Moon Society), as they met to exchange ideas during the full moon. This group later became known as Zhushan Bayou (Eight friends of Zhushan), comprised of Wang Qi, Cheng Yiting, Deng Bishan, Wang Dafan, Wang Yeting, He Xuren, Bi Botao, Xu Zhongnan and Tian Hexian.
Wang Qi (1884-1937), a native of Xinjianxian, Jiangxi province, went to Jingdezhen at the age of seventeen and was the founding member of Zhushan Bayou. The development of his mature style can be traced to a trip he made to Shanghai in 1916 to see an exhibition of paintings by the Yangzhou Baguai (Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou). Wang was so impressed by the paintings of Huang Shen, one of the Eight Eccentrics, that he started to emulate Huang’s style in porcelain design. This influence can be seen in the present lot with his use of rapid and expressive brushstrokes to create whimsical, exaggerated figures with calligraphic inscriptions in cursive script, all within a sparse setting. By fusing Huang’s style with Western painting techniques, such as the use of light and shade, Wang’s personal style emerged. Comparable panels include a set of four sold in our New York rooms, 17th-18th March 2015, lot 295; and another included in the exhibition Brush and Clay. Chinese Porcelain of the Early 20th Century, Hong Kong Museum of Art, Hong Kong, 1990, cat. no. 29.
Deng Bishan (1874-1930), a native of Yuganxian, Jiangxi province, excelled in painting fish swimming amongst aquatic plants in a style that reflects a degree of Japanese influence. Well educated and a skilled calligrapher, he was highly respected by porcelain painters in Jingdezhen, teaching Wang Qi calligraphy and portrait painting on porcelain. A set of four fish plaques, from the collection of the Hon. Andrew Li Kwok Nang, was sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 1st December 2010, lot 2832; and another was included in the exhibition ibid., cat. no. 82, together with four smaller plaques, cat. nos 78-81.
