Enamelled porcelain vase ‘Sage and Dragon’, with Yongzheng Seal

A porcelain vase with a rounded body that is widest at the shoulders, where a narrow neck ends in a rounded mouth. It is decorated with five-coloured enamels that form a continuous scene of a raging sea, with a fierce dragon emerging from the waves, and a brave sage, with his chest uncovered, and one leg raised, surrounded by long ribbons. At the base is a six-character seal framed in a double circle ‘大清雍正年制’.
