Robert Kleiner于1988年所作的評估中提及此件拍品
Hu Wenming is considered amongst the most accomplished artisans of the late Ming dynasty. The shape of the incense burner is based on an archaic prototype dating to the Shang or Zhou dynasties. The animated creatures, however, may have been drawn from the 'Classic of Mountains and Seas', , compiled between the 2nd or 3rd centuries BC.
A bronze incense burner signed by Hu Wenming and decorated with mythical creatures, approx. 1550-1600, is illustrated in , San Francisco, 2008, p.180, no.111. See also a parcel-gilt copper incense burner, , Yunjian Hu Wenming mark, late 16th/early 17th century, illustrated by R.Mowry, , Phoenix, 1993, p.67. The exceptional quality of the present vessel is demonstrated in the various techniques, from the silver-wire inlay, to the chasing and engraving, as well as the parcel gilding.
A similar parcel-gilt silver-inlaid bronze incense burner, , Yunjian Hu Wenming mark, late 16th/early 17th century, was sold at Christie's Hong Kong, 27 November 2017, lot 8117.
