EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare inside-painted rock crystal snuff bottle created in 1905 by the talented artist Ma Shaoxuan. Standing at a height of 6.5 cm, this exquisite piece is part of a private collection and holds immense historical and artistic value. The flattened, rounded rectangular shape of the bottle reveals its expert craftsmanship, with intricate details painted on one main side. The painting depicts an array of inscribed paper items such as paintings, a fan dated 1905, rubbings, and calligraphy. Each stroke showcases the artist's skillful hand and attention to detail. On the reverse side of the bottle, an excerpt from the 'Lanting Preface' is inscribed along with a dedicatory line that translates to "made for the elder brother Fuchen". Ma Shaoxuan's signature can be found alongside his seal reading Shaoxuan. The photograph beautifully captures every aspect of this remarkable artwork - from its delicate brushwork to its translucent beauty. It transports us back in time to appreciate not only Ma Shaoxuan's talent but also provides insight into Chinese culture during the early 20th century. Bridgeman Images has done justice in preserving this significant piece through their high-quality photo print.
