今天,一名来自上海的朋友说,很高兴在大都会博物馆二楼“元代艺术大展“里看到那件天价元代青花瓷,并将名称写下来给我:《鬼谷子下山罐》。
回来赶紧做功课,展览果然有一件元青花,图片、英文名称以及说明如下,藏家标明“私人收藏”,有点神秘啊,对比一下,很可能就是5年前那件高价拍卖的珍贵瓷器:
Jar with the Story of Guiguzi,
14th century
Yuan dynasty (1271–1368)
China
Porcelain with underglaze cobalt blue decoration (Jingdezhen ware);
Diam. 13 in. (33 cm)
Lent by a private collection
This spectacular jar is vibrantly painted with a narrative based on a popular tale (pinghua) set in the combative Warring States period (475–221 B.C.E.). The decoration, which may derive from woodblock-print illustrations, records an episode in the conflict between the states of Qi and Yan.
The scene can be identified by the presence of the famous strategist Guiguzi (Wang Yi), who is here seated in a cart pulled by a tiger and a leopard. He was asked to help liberate a Qi general who had been captured in battle. The two mounted figures most likely represent Sun Dai, who was sent to request Guiguzi's assistance, and another Qi general who led the large army sent to free the captive.
网上查到《鬼谷子下山罐》的拍卖消息如下:
2005年7月12日在佳士得公司伦敦拍卖会上这件“鬼谷下山”青花罐,由伦敦古董商艾斯凯纳齐以1568.8万英镑(约2.45亿人民币)竞得(据说最终获得此罐的是当今全球计算机软件业最具实力之人),创下历年来中国艺术品拍卖的最高成交价,同时也刷新了中国瓷器及中国工艺器拍卖价格的世界纪录。这也是目前为止唯一的一件价格在两亿元人民币以上的中国艺术品。
