Description
217 十三 / 十四世紀 青釉玉壺春瓶
H21.6cm
來源:紐約大都會藝術博物館前館長 Fong Chow(1923-2012)收藏
紐約佳士得 2013 年 9 月 19-20 日編號 1274
「雨過天青雲破處,這般顏色做將來。」
宋.徽宗
FONG CHOW
Fong Chow(1923-2012),為紐約重要華人收藏家、陶藝家、攝影師,其祖父是周壽臣爵士,為20世紀初香港政商界名人,1918年創立東亞銀行。Fong Chow 學貫中國藝術品及書畫,於紐約大都會藝術博物館擔任研究員長達25年,曾任紐約大都會藝術博物館館長,收藏多捐贈予紐約大都會藝術博物館。其收藏亦曾多次上拍於蘇富比、佳士得等國際知名拍場,並締造不俗佳績。
瓶為玉壺春式,撇口,口部下收成細長頸,垂腹,圈足,曲線優美,素靜典雅。滿施青釉,釉質瑩潤,釉色天青,聚釉處泛綠,釉層滋潤柔和,口沿釉薄處呈灰青色,清淡含蓄。下腹局部橄欖綠色,或為入窯燒製時產生陰陽面、或為土沁黃化,趣味天成。釉面滿布蟬翼紋般的細小開片,足露胎,胎色深灰,為俗稱「香灰胎」。
宋.周輝在《清波雜志》記載:「汝窯宮中禁燒,內有瑪瑙末為釉,唯供御揀退,方許出賣,近尤難得。」如1987年河南省寶豐縣清涼寺窯址出土,中國河南省文物考古研究所庋藏北宋〈汝窯小口細頸瓶〉及1989年河南省寶豐縣大營鎮蠻子營村窖藏,寶豐縣文物管理局庋藏北宋〈汝窯天青釉深腹碗〉,應是「供御撿退」後被寺院窖藏。兩者皆施天青色釉,下部局部呈橄欖綠色,釉面開細片紋及足底無釉,採用墊燒而成之特徵,與本品極為相似。又本品底有一道窯裂痕跡,與拍賣於香港佳士得2021年12月3日,編號2968,南宋〈龍泉仿官窯瓶〉,其底部窯裂痕跡相似,可資比對參考。
玉壺春瓶基本造形是由左右兩個對稱的「S」形構成,頸較細,頸部中央微微收束,向下逐漸加寬過渡為杏圓狀下垂腹,曲線變化圓緩,線條優美柔和。因宋代詩人讚「玉壺先春」而得名。其形由漢青銅器演變而來,當時為裝酒的實用器具,定型於北宋時期,漸成觀賞性陳設瓷,獲得世人百般寵愛,歷千年不衰。複刻原型可參閱欽定四庫全書-西清古鑑、卷十八.漢〈素瓶四〉。另大英博物館庋藏北宋〈汝窯天青釉玉壺春瓶〉,與本件青釉玉壺春瓶造形、釉色皆極為相近,以寧靜素穆的釉色營造清幽淡遠的高妙意境,視之如碧峰翠色,有似玉非玉之美,別具風姿。
宋代瓷器以其精美典雅的器型與純淨釉色而為世所知,其於平淡中靜靜流淌出含蓄與溫潤,風靡朝堂與民間。據記載,宋徽宗尤喜愛天青色釉瓷器,更寫詩誇讚「雨過天青雲破處,這般顏色做將來。」迎合統治階層審美情趣的素雅清逸色彩,成為當時上流社會的時尚,青瓷發展達到頂峰。細觀本品胎質細膩,釉色青綠淡雅,開片唯美,釉面光澤柔和、晶瑩細潤,達到類玉效果,風格含蓄秀美,有著「千峰碧波翠色來」之美妙,為件雋永佳品。
