The base mark reads: 清玩  - Thanh ngoạn - Qing wan - pure trinket' in zhuanshou script within a double circle.

Provenance:
- The collection of Thomas Ulbrich, Studio Tho, Hanoi-Berlin.
- A Belgian private collection.

The bowl was commissioned by Lord Nguyễn Phúc Chu (阮福淍 1675–1725) also known as Nguyễn Hiển Tông, who ruled Southern Vietnam from 1691 to 1725.
He is also the author of the famous poem depicted on this bowl titled: 'Spring clouds on top of Hải Vân Mountain' - Ải Lĩnh xuân vân 隘嶺春雲 Mây xuân trên Ải Lĩnh (= Hải Vân ).

The depicted landscape shows the mountainous area, in the Thuận Quảng region between ĐàNẵng and Huế described in the poem.

The poem reads:
隘嶺春雲 - Ải Lĩnh xuân vân
越南衝要此山巔 - Việt Nam xung yếu thử sơn điên,
絕嶺还如蜀道偏 - Tuyệt lĩnh hoàn như Thục đạo thiên.
但見雲橫三峻嶺 - Đãn kiến vân hoành tam tuấn lĩnh,
不知人在幾重天 - Bất tri nhân tại kỷ trùng thiên.
冷沾鬚髮非同雪 - Lãnh chiêm tu phát phi đồng tuyết,
濕濺衣裳豈是泉 - Thấp tiễn y thường khởi thị tuyền.
惟願海風吹作雨 - Duy nguyện hải phong xuy tác vũ,
正宜千里潤桑田 - Chính nghi thiên lý nhuận tang điền.
道人書 - 'dao ren shu' (Daoist Book)
In the leaf: 玩请 - 'qing wan'

Ref.:
- Vietnam National Museum of History, where the article states: In particular, Nguyen Phuc Chu liked to order Chinese-style porcelain wares, on which he gave titles to his poems and drew illustrations of their contents. Up to now, collectors of porcelain inscriptions at home and abroad have collected many porcelain items signed by Lord Nguyen Phuc Chu, mainly large bowls, about 18 cm in diameter, with poems written by the emperor, Lord Nguyen Phuc Chu. Those are seven-word poems, written in white enameled porcelain bowls painted in blue, with the title Thanh Thoc (清玩) written in a seal script in a double circle. Each poem is written in 10 lines, including 1 title line, 8 lines of content and 1 stray line at the end of the poem with three words Dao Nhan Thu. Next to each poem is a picture of painted water - characters, scenes, places that the poem describes. This is the most popular decoration style on the oriental ceramics at that time... (link)

These lime pots were used to heat lime (chalk), a necessary ingredient in the preparation of betel, which the Vietnamese population used to chew since ancient times. The opening visible on the top of the body allowed the lime to be taken out with a spatula. The handle is similar to a betel vine, thus linking the object to its function. The lime pot symbolised the home and occupied a central place in the social life of the household. According to tradition, if the lime pot was broken, it would bring bad luck. This fundamental object in Vietnamese culture was placed on the altar of the family, the village or the pagoda.

- The State Hermitage Museum, inventory number ГЭ-1131, for the original painting 'Les Acteurs de la Comédie-Française' also known as 'Coquettes qui pour voir' or 'La Mascarade' by the French painter Jean Antoine Watteau (1684–1721), painted in 1711-1712. By the mid-18th C., the work belonged to Louis Antoine Crozat (1699-1770), Baron de Thiers, the younger brother of the Parisian merchant and art collector Pierre Crozat. It was acquired in 1772 for Empress Catherine II of Russia and has since been among the Russian imperial collections in the Hermitage and the Gatchina Palace. Now part of the museum's permanent exhibition, it remains on display in the Winter Palace. (link) (see reference image 10)
- The National Library of Spain, inventory number bdh0000144141, for the engraving by Henri Simon Thomassin (1688-1741), which probably served as the example for a smaller version as explained below. (link) (see reference image 11)
- The National Academy of Lincei, Italy, inventory number S-FC53606, for a small version by an unknown publisher, which was likely sent to China where it served as the source for the design of this tea service. It was a common practice for European merchants to send small versions of large engravings (mostly after important paintings) to the Chinese workshops, to have them reproduced on porcelain. (link) (see reference image 12)
- A single cup of this service is in the Lurie collection.

Given the rarity of this design we can assume that only one service was ordered and/or made it back to Europe. It was likely a French command, possibly from the entourage of the brothers Pierre and Louis Antoine Crozat. Pierre was one of the principal advisors to Philippe II, Duke of Orléans, and it was only after his death in 1740 that his collection passed to his younger brother, Louis Antoine, Baron de Thiers. After his death in 1770, the work found its permanent home in Russia through a sale brokered by the famous philosopher Denis Diderot, a prominent figure during the Age of Enlightenment.

Our sincere thanks to Will Motley and Peter Greendyke for their kind help with the description of this lot.

According to Howard and Ayers, the central design is after a European print entitled 'The Washtub' (Le Cuvier) after Le Mesle:

"The subject was a popular one for it allowed the lady to be naked with innocence, and it was copied over at least a decade. It is probable that the cup and saucer in this collection are 'matched', the former being coarser in execution and perhaps a few years later. Other examples: teabowl and saucer, Victoria & Albert Museum; Dutch-decorated plate, after the same original, but finer (Sotheby's, 25 May 1971, lot 207)." (Source: 'China for the West, Vol II, p. 359).

This plate features a simplified version of the well-known “Valentine” pattern. The original, more detailed scene—with palm and breadfruit trees—was likely drawn by Piercy Brett, official artist to Lord Anson during his West Indies voyages. A refined version was produced for Anson’s armorial service around 1743, and Brett’s illustrations later inspired engravings in Anson’s Voyages (1748). The design, once known as “Where is the Shepherd?”, remained popular for years. Variants appeared in underglaze blue with hounds, puppies, and Chinese-style shepherds in European dress beneath pine trees.

Literature:
- D. Howard and J. Ayers, China for the West, London 1978, Vol. I, pp. 234-235, for a discussion on these type of plates. The pattern and inscription satirize the financial speculation disaster in 1720 which started in England with the South Sea Company, and spread to France and Holland. The economic bubble is described and illustrated in the contemporary source 'Het groote tafereel der dwaasheid, vertoonende de opkomst, voortgang en ondergang der actie, bubbel en windnegotie, in Vrankryk, Engeland en de Nederlanden, gepleegt in den jaar MDCCXX' (The great scene of madness, ....) of 1720.

This series of plates was made for the Dutch market and they are called 'Bubble' plates, since they were likely to have been made to satirize the South Sea Bubble 'mania' which occurred in the early 18th century. Besides the 'A-series' of this design, this 'B series' is the most rare. The South Sea Bubble refers to the South Sea Company which was a British joint stock company founded in 1711 in which many people made and lost considerable fortunes.

This plate is part of a series that classically depicts the Nativity, the Crucifixion, and the Resurrection. Variations exist, including versions with different borders as well as a  polychrome series. The original engraving for this series was created by the Amsterdam artist Jan Luiken (1649-1712) and was included in a Lutheran Bible from the 18th century. (see scan)

The centre portrays the Crucifixion scene; Christ crowned with a halo and thorns, nailed upon a cross and above is the traditional caption INRI: Iesus Nazarenus Rex ludaeorum (Jesus of Nazareth King of the Jews). He is flanked by two crucified thieves, to his left and right are the Virgin Mary and St. John. A Roman centurion (presumably Longinus) speaks to Christ, while four soldiers (on the foreground) dice for the robe.

The mark, Shen De Tang Bo Gu Zhi 慎德堂博古製, translates to ‘Made in the antique style for the Hall for the Cultivation of Virtue’.

This hall mark appears on porcelains from the early Kangxi period and on imperial porcelains from the Daoguang period. The Hall for the Cultivation of Virtue was one of the private imperial residences of the old Summer Palace, the Yuanmingyuan, located northwest of the Forbidden City in Beijing. The hall was originally built by the Kangxi emperor and was expanded by the Yongzheng and Qianlong emperors. Eventually the Daoguang emperor, who reigned from 1821-1850, used the hall as a daily residence until his death. The entire complex, including the Shendetang, was destroyed by European troops in 1860.

Provenance: A Dutch private collection, Amsterdam.

This fine blue and white porcelain plate depicts eight horses and a horse keeper, after careful research and comparison, we believe this is not The Eight Horses of Wang Mu. In that renowned depiction, the horses are primarily shown in dynamic, galloping poses, whereas this piece presents a serene scene by a stream, where a horse keeper is bathing the horses. Based on this, we believe that the painting is a tribute to Yuan Dynasty painter Zhao Mengfu’s Bathing Horses (趙孟頫浴馬圖卷). The overall composition evokes a sense of harmony between humans and nature, exuding tranquility and elegance, and can be compared to similar pieces in the collection of the Palace Museum in China.

The arms and motto depicted belong to the Dutch Republic. The letters 'VOC are the cypher of the 'Verenigde Oost Indische Compagnie', the Dutch East India Company. The design has been accurately copied from one side of a silver coin, issued by the Company in 1728 for use in the Far East. Even the ribbed milling of the coin is imitated in the inner rim of the plate.

The service to which this plate belonged was arguably commissioned by the Company to commemorate the successful launch of its new coinage and may possibly have been used by its employees at the Company's different official bases throughout the Far East.

Other pieces from this service include cups and saucers in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London (no. 645 & a-1907), in the Museum Boymans-van Beuningen, Rotterdam, Netherlands (Hong Kong, 1984, no.43), and in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (Le Corbeiller, 1974, no.43); a plate in the Mottahedeh collection (Howard and Ayers, 1978, vol.I, pl. 191); a plate, teapot, cup and saucer at the Musees Royaux d'Art et d'Histoire, Brussels, Belgium (Jorg, 1989, no.36); a teapot without lid in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, Netherlands (Lunsingh Scheurleer, 1974, no.267), and a teapot in the Africana Museum, Johannesburg, South Africa (Woodward, 1974, pl.Al).

The Utrecht dish is part of a collection of territorial armorial dishes and barber's bowls that feature coats of arms from various Dutch, English, Flemish and French provinces and cities. These dishes, likely privately commissioned, were decorated with specific heraldic symbols. The dishes are circular, with a central coat of arms, often surmounted by a crown or bonnet, and a scroll beneath the shield displaying the territory's name. The Utrecht dish is one of many in this set, representing the historical regions of the Low Countries.

Decorated with a scene 'The Bull's Cruelty', after the Dutch painting, depicting a farmer and his wife attacked by a bull, the farmer lying on the ground, wounded, and his wife thrown up in the air giving premature birth to a baby which falls on the ground together with her shoes, a windmill on the left and a boy flying a kite on the right.. The drama took place in Zaandam on 29th August, 1647, when a woman rushed to her husband who was being thrown in the air because of a bull who was probably startled by a boy flying a kite. The wife gave birth to her son in mid-air and both fell on the ground. The parents died directly after the drama and the child survived, but died nine months later. The family is buried in the 'Bullenkerk' or Westzijderkerk Zaandam, where the painting (dated 1737) which was the example for the decoration of this cup and saucer, hangs as well, together with a poem ('Des Stiers Wreedheyt') which describes the incident.

Enamelled in the Netherlands, this Chinese plate depicts Brussels textile merchants. The top of the border shows the city's coat of arms, featuring the archangel Michael slaying a black devil. As a renowned textile centre, Brussels was especially known for its camlet, a fabric made from goat or camel hair imported from Asia. The inscription "Caro de Oro" and "Fabrica de Brusela" may be interpreted as "Brussels fabric, as precious as gold." The design likely derives from an engraved copper plate held in the Museum De Lakenhal in Leiden (inv. no. 11056). (link).

According to Christiaan Jörg, the decoration on this piece corresponds to the fourth and last of Cornelis Pronk’s designs for the Dutch East India Company, The Arbour, finished in 1737, sent to Batavia in 1738, and received in Guangzhou in 1739. Chinese potters made six dinner services comprising 371 pieces, and eighteen tea sets using this design, painted both in underglaze blue and polychrome enamels and sent to Holland in 1740.

The arbour in this design is a topiary version of an architectural garden arch, a decidedly western form. In 1730, Pronk executed a watercolour of such a structure, which he based on the Cholon pavilion in the park that surrounds Bosch en Hove, an estate near Haarlem.
