明宣德 青花海水白龍紋扁瓶
瓶圓口，口邊微外侈，長頸自上而下漸闊，扁圓式腹，橢圓形淺圈足。通體青花為飾，瓶口及頸部繪卷草紋和纏枝蓮紋各一週。腹部為青花留白海水龍紋，一條矯健威猛的白龍在蒼茫無際的大海中遨遊，白龍回首曲體，鬚髮飄揚，四肢伸張，呼之欲出。青白相間的波濤上下翻滾，洶湧澎湃，又見點點黑斑，大有鋪天蓋地、水珠激濺、迎面而來之感。尤其是以青花點白龍雙睛，愈顯神采。
Bottle round mouth, slightly extravagant mouth edge, long neck from top to bottom gradually widening, flat round belly, elliptical shallow circle foot. The whole body is decorated with blue and white flowers. The bottle mouth and neck are covered with scrolls of grass and twisted branches and lotuses for one week each. The abdomen is a blue and white sea dragon pattern. A vigorous white dragon roams in the boundless sea. The white dragon looks back on the melody and must flutter, stretch out its limbs and call out. Green and white waves rolling up and down, surging, and see spots of black spots, there is a sense of overwhelming, splashing water, head-on. Especially with blue and white dots white dragon's eyes, more and more vivid.
宣德時期，有“諸料悉備，青花為貴”之說。此瓶的裝飾過程是先在瓷坯上以尖狀工具勾劃龍紋輪廓及龍之雙目、冠發、厚唇、牙齒、爪趾、鱗等細部，然後在龍身周圍用青花料滿繪波濤洶湧的海水並施透明釉，入窯高溫燒成。史載，宣德時青花多用鄭和從西洋帶回的“蘇泥勃青”鈷料，呈色深豔明亮，如藍寶石一般，線條間往往有暈散現象，有如水墨畫的墨暈，加上錯落有致的黑色斑點，使畫面產生了非同凡響的藝術效果。
During the Xuande period, there was a saying that "all information is available, blue and white are valuable". The decoration process of the bottle is to draw the outline of the dragon pattern and the details of the dragon's eyes, crown hair, thick lips, teeth, claw toes and scales with pointed tools on the ceramic blank, then paint the rough sea water with blue and white materials around the dragon body and apply transparent glaze, and sinter in the kiln at high temperature. Historically, in Xuande period, blue and white mostly used the cobalt material "Su Nibo Qing" which Zheng He brought back from the Western Ocean. It was dark and bright in color, like sapphire. There was often dizziness between lines, like ink in ink painting, and black spots, which made the picture have a remarkable artistic effect.

In the 10th year of Xianfeng (1860), the Anglo-French allied forces invaded Beijing and burned the Yuanmingyuan, the world-famous garden of ten thousand gardens. In the first large imperial garden built by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, countless artistic treasures of five thousand years of Chinese civilization were wiped out by the Anglo-French allied forces, but this record of the Ming Dynasty National treasure has been fortunately preserved, and it was originally preserved. Meng Douban, a French officer, took it back to France and kept it in good condition until the end of 2007. When the world financial crisis came to light, Mr. Zhou, a patriotic overseas Chinese who had been in France for many years, asked several famous Chinese and foreign experts to identify it. After that, he purchased the national treasure at a high price of 3.8 million from the back of Meng Douban, in order to prevent the loss of the national treasure of China. Overseas, Christie's learned about the treasure and persuaded Mr. Zhou to auction it in Britain. Mr. Zhou insisted on returning the treasure to his motherland. After more than a dozen entreaties from Jiangsu Wanda International Auction Co., Ltd., Mr. Zhou was finally moved by his sincerity and decided to reopen the treasure at the spring auction of Jiangsu Wanda International Auction Co., Ltd.
