概要
伊万里で海外輸出用に数多く作られた蓋付きの大壺である。蓋と肩の部分は牡丹・桜・菊などの花で埋められ、胴の三方に大きく窓をとる。窓には枝垂桜と菊を立花風に生けた大花瓶を中心に雉の親子が描かれ、下辺に桜花入りのすやり霞をおく。この文様構成の基本は中国にあるが、桜を用いることで日本的なものにしている。地は染付の藍色の上に金彩で花菱入り斜め格子文を描き桜花を散らす。花の輪郭、雉などにも金彩を用いている。
This is one of many large, covered jars that were made in Kyushu’s Imari area for export. The lid and shoulder are covered with flowers, such as peonies, cherry blossoms and chrysanthemum, while a large frame covers three sides of the body. Within the frame are pheasants with chicks and a large vase in the center. Weeping cherry and chrysanthemum are arranged in vase in the Rikka style, while cherry blossoms and haze cover the lower portion of the frame. Although the basics of this design originated in China, it is made to look Japanese through the inclusion of cherry blossoms. The indigo blue underglaze is covered with a diagonal lattice with hanabishi patterns in gold, scattered with cherry blossoms. Gold is also used in the flower outlines and pheasants.
