EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a delicate tea bowl from the Fujian province in China. Created during the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127) by an unknown artist from the Chinese School, this ceramic masterpiece measures 4.8x11.8 cm and is currently housed at the Freer Gallery of Art, Smithsonian Institution in the USA. The exquisite craftsmanship of this tea bowl is evident in its intricate design and flawless execution. Known as Jian ware, it features a stoneware body adorned with an underfired iron glaze that adds depth and richness to its appearance. The subtle variations in color create a mesmerizing effect, making it truly stand out among other pottery pieces. Donated by Charles Lang Freer, this remarkable artifact represents not only the artistic prowess of ancient Chinese craftsmen but also serves as a testament to cultural exchange through time and space. Its presence within the Smithsonian Institution allows visitors to appreciate and learn about traditional Chinese ceramics firsthand. As we gaze upon this print captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and elegance of ancient Chinese artistry. It reminds us of our shared human history and how objects like these tea bowls continue to bridge gaps between cultures even centuries later.
