Jar with Wide Mouth and Straight Neck, with Four Small Handles - Ming Dynasty. Prof. Ye Zhemin commented: 'In this jar, a wild goose in the clouds was painted with simple but energetic brushstrokes. It resembles a composition of flowers set up in such an original way that, compared to the 'flowers and birds' decorations of later dynasties, it stands out for its vivacity and naturalness. Therefore, this jar exhibited in Europe deserves the praise of the public.'
In the museum since 1963. From Cizhou.
