This vase was made after an English porcelain original with a striped ground and medallions painted in <i>grisaille</i> made at the Chelsea-Derby factory, some of which have marks that have recently been dated to around 1783-–4.\r\n\r\nNeo-classical shapes were especially popular at the Derby factory after 1770 and Chinese copies may have been made after 1785. The vase is decorated with an oval medallion on either side, one containing a woman holding a garland and the other a landscape. The female figure in classical dress reflected the new European taste for neo-classical designs, while the landscape may have been inspired by views of the Derbyshire countryside that were painted on the Derby originals. Chinese copies of the Derby originals would have first been made in Jingdezhen and sent to the workshops in Guangzhou to be painted. Enamelled copper versions of the Derby vessels were also produced in the workshops of Guangzhou. ","physicalDescription":"Ewer-shaped, oval in section and set on a rectangular plinth. The vase is of inverted pear-shape with broad pedestal foot and narrow neck with wavy shell-edged mouth and high loop handle rising from a satyr's mask (here converted into the horned head of a male Chinese figure). It is decorated with an oval medallion on either side, reserved on a ground of close vertical gilt stripes, with acanthus-foliage border in blue below, and imitation fluting and other borders in blue on the neck and foot. One medallion shows a girl holding a garland; on the reverse is a river landscape with small figures.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Unknown","id":"A1848"},"association":{"text":"maker","id":"x40240"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"porcelain","id":"AAT10662"}],"techniques":[{"text":"painted","id":"AAT54216"},{"text":"glazed","id":"AAT53914"},{"text":"gilded","id":"AAT53789"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Porcelain painted in underglaze blue and overglaze enamels, and gilded","categories":[{"text":"Porcelain","id":"THES48907"},{"text":"Household objects","id":"THES48939"},{"text":"Ceramics","id":"THES48982"}],"styles":[{"text":"Qing","id":"AAT18478"},{"text":"Chinese export","id":"AAT120350"}],"collectionCode":{"text":"EAS","id":"THES48596"},"images":["2008BR9798","2008BR9785","2011EY2898","2011EY2900"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"137","id":"THES49876"},"free":"","case":"12","shelf":"8","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"Vase","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Jingdezhen","id":"x32230"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"ca. 1785","earliest":"1780-01-01","latest":"1789-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Basil Ionides Bequest","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Diameter","value":"28.5","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[],"objectHistory":"","historicalContext":"Painted in the style of English Derby porcelain.","briefDescription":"Vase, porcelain decorated with an oval medallion on either side, with a background of vertical stripes, Chinese, Jingdezhen, ca. 1785","bibliographicReferences":[{"reference":{"text":"Kerr","id":"AUTH321142"},"details":"p.74-75, pl.101","free":""},{"reference":{"text":"Lu","id":"AUTH321139"},"details":"p.252","free":""}],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"","id":""},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[{"text":"satyr","id":"x35233"},{"text":"medallions","id":"AAT77354"},{"text":"figures","id":"x31098"},{"text":"river","id":"AAT8707"}],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[{"text":"VASE AFTER AN ENGLISH MODEL\r\nAbout 1785\r\nPorcelain decorated in underglaze blue, overglaze enamels and gilding\r\nJingdezhen; possibly decorated in Canton (Guangzhou)\r\nBasil Ionides Bequest\r\nMuseum no.
