About the Item
Feathered Elegance: Famille Rose Hawk on a Rose Branch
This exquisite Chinese Porcelain Plaque, dating to the Mid-20th Century, is a vibrant example of traditional Chinese panel painting in porcelain. The artwork, executed in the rich Famille Rose palette, features a Long−Tailed Hawk perched on a branch heavy with pink roses and foliage.
The hawk, identifiable by its long, trailing tail feathers and sharp beak, is rendered in colorful enamels, standing out against the clean white porcelain background. The combination of the bird of prey with the delicate rose blossoms is a classic juxtaposition in Asian art, symbolizing both strength and beauty.
The plaque is presented in a period Chinoiserie frame, which features a black lacquer finish with a continuous gilt key−fret border, providing an elegant and traditional presentation.
Dimensions (Framed): 17 inches high×11 1/2 inches wide (43.18cm high x 29.21cm wide).
Historical Context: Bird-and-Flower Painting in Porcelain
The Porcelain Panel Tradition
This plaque continues the tradition of Huaniao (Flower and Bird) painting, a highly esteemed genre in Chinese art. By the late 19th and 20th centuries, porcelain workshops in Jingdezhen were producing large, flat plaques intended to be framed and displayed as fine art, paralleling traditional paintings on paper or silk.
Symbolism of the Scene
The subject matter is laden with auspicious meaning:
The Hawk: A powerful symbol, the hawk (or falcon) often represents courage, speed, and achievement. In the context of a bird-and-flower scene, it can also signify high aspirations or a position of prominence.
The Rose: A symbol of enduring spring and beauty. The overall composition of a powerful bird among flowers conveys a wish for success and prosperity.
The Famille Rose Palette
The vibrant, detailed colors are achieved using the Famille Rose (Rose Family) enamels. This technique, developed in the early 18th century, allowed for a broader range of opaque colors and subtle shading, making it the ideal medium for the realistic and rich details required in 20th-century porcelain painting.
