Description
“Folklore in Ming and Qing Porcelain” showcases over forty pieces of porcelain made in the late Ming and early Qing periods. They mainly feature stories excerpted from folklore, history and auspicious motifs. Popular stories such as Romance of the Western Chamber, The Peony Pavilion, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Investiture of the Gods and Legends of the Sui and Tang Dynasties are vividly illustrated. These famous stories could rekindle interest in traditional Chinese culture and arouse curiosity in how to translate ancient folklore into porcelain decoration. The exhibits are selected from seven private Hong Kong collections.
