EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Pouring Vessel from the 17th-18th century, crafted out of exquisite green jade. The intricate carving and ornate details of this East Asian masterpiece are truly awe-inspiring. The pouring vessel, with its elegant curves and delicate craftsmanship, is a testament to the skill and artistry of Chinese artisans during this period. Every inch of the stone surface has been meticulously carved, resulting in an enchanting decorative piece that exudes sophistication. The focal point of this extraordinary artwork is the depiction of mythical creatures known as Chilong, Pixiu or Bixie. These legendary beings are intricately intertwined around the vessel's body, their fierce expressions capturing attention immediately. Their presence adds an element of mystique and symbolism to this already mesmerizing creation. The pouring vessel serves both functional and aesthetic purposes; it not only holds liquid but also acts as a stunning decorative item for any space lucky enough to house it. Its rich history and cultural significance make it a true treasure that transcends time. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly captured every detail in this photograph print, allowing viewers to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this ancient artifact without having to travel back centuries in time. This image is undoubtedly a valuable addition to any fine art collection or exhibition dedicated to East Asian artistry.
