[清本源 x Gohobi Gallery] Blue-and-White Stencil Moonflower Pattern Ink Dragon Small Tankard

This small tankard features a striking blue-and-white design with an ink dragon theme. The dragon, depicted in rich, deep blue underglaze, contrasts sharply with the pure white porcelain, creating a refined and elegant appearance. The intricate details of the dragon—its scales, whiskers, and claws—are rendered with fine, complex lines, capturing its majestic and mysterious essence.

The dragon, a traditional symbol of imperial power and good fortune in Chinese culture, is shown coiling and soaring through the clouds. This representation not only highlights the dragon's regal nature but also imbues the piece with cultural depth.

The inner design incorporates a Moonflower pattern with winding lotus elements, blending classic and contemporary styles. The use of Ming dynasty pigments enhances the depiction of the dragon amidst swirling clouds, with the nuanced layering of colors emphasizing the dragon's dynamic movement and the ethereal quality of the clouds.

This piece represents a harmonious fusion of historical artistry and modern technique, reflecting both aesthetic beauty and cultural significance.
