EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a misshapen baluster jar adorned with vibrant flowers, dating back to around 1670. Created by the Japanese School in the 17th century, this exquisite porcelain piece is currently housed at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, UK. The Dutch East India Company (VOC) and Kakiemon workshops played significant roles in its creation. Standing at an impressive height of 41 cm, this jar was specifically crafted for export purposes. Its polychrome overglaze enamels add a stunning touch to its glazed surface, making it a true work of art. Originating from Asia, Japan's Kyushu region and more specifically Arita kiln-sites and Nangawara are associated with its creation. The photograph captures the beauty and intricacy of this early twentieth-century ceramic masterpiece. The delicate floral patterns showcased on the jar's surface demonstrate exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. It serves as a testament to Japan's rich artistic heritage. With its ornate design and decorative appeal, this jar exemplifies the skillful artistry that went into creating such objects during that era. It stands as a symbol of Asian culture and craftsmanship while also representing the historical exchange between Eastern and Western civilizations through trade routes like those established by VOC. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured every aspect of this remarkable piece through their lens, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty even from afar.
