Chinese porcelain vase from the beginning of the 20th century that exemplifies the magic of the "Pink Family" style at its best. The piece is a testament to the artistic ingenuity and technical skill of the Chinese ceramists of the period, the shape of the vase is imposing and elegant, with a regal silhouette that evokes nobility and majesty. The carefully modelled bulbous body of the vase stands on a delicate base, while the tall, slender neck shows the craftsman's mastery in creating harmonious and balanced forms. What really catches the eye are the elaborate scenes that adorn the surface of the vase. In one scene, many female figures are depicted in an atmosphere full of life and movement. The soft, muted colours used to paint these figures create a harmonious contrast with the white background of the porcelain, lending a sense of delicacy and subtlety to the scene. The other scene depicts a Chinese emperor surrounded by female figures. This composition captures the essence of the imperial court and the pomp of the dynasty, where the emperor, with a powerful presence, is the focal point of the scene, while the female figures surround him with grace and elegance.
