Lot 8038
A BLUE AND WHITE DRAGON MIEPING Yuan Dynasty
This piece has a small round opening, a short inward-slanting neck, broad shoulders and a belly that narrows gradually onto a round foot. With the exception of the bottom from the bottom, the entire bottle is covered in a white glaze with blue and white patterns. On the wall of the belly is a drawing of a dragon in march. The vivid drawing of the dragon with its head turned and hairs flying gives off a sense of speed. This mieping, with beautiful contours and lively drawings, is a refreshing yet sophisticated Yuan Dynasty blue and white piece.
