A striking general’s jar (Ginger Jar) painted in the classic underglaze blue and copper-red palette on a warm ivory-white body.
The main register is filled with a lively historical narrative: an ancient Chinese figure in flowing robes and official headdress stands beside a richly saddled horse, set among gnarled pine trees, stylized rockwork, and curling clouds brushed in iron red.
The brushwork is confident and expressive, with deep cobalt washes building volume in the landscape and warm copper-red accents animating the trees, drapery, and auspicious cloud motifs.
The domed lid is crowned by a bud-shaped finial and decorated with scrolling florals beneath a geometric band; the lower body is ringed by a traditional border of upright lotus-petal panels.
Tall, weighty, and architectural, this piece is made to anchor a console, mantel, library shelf, or dining-table centerpiece — and its story-filled surface rewards close viewing from every angle.
