Bitong with roosters and landscape, Chinese porcelain, 20th century

Descriptio Pink-colored glazed porcelain. Dimensions not specified. Cylindrical brush holder decorated with a continuous scene depicting three roosters with black, white, and brown plumage in a natural setting of gnarled pine trees, grasses, and red flowers. The birds are posed in lively and expressive attitudes, with meticulous rendering of the plumage demonstrating the artist’s skill. The landscape is rendered in a style reminiscent of scholarly painting, where vegetation and negative space create a harmonious balance between form and space. On the reverse, an extensive poetic inscription in black calligraphy is accompanied by a red seal, reinforcing the piece’s erudite character. A four-character mark in red under the glaze appears on the base, indicating the workshop or artist. The work belongs to the refined productions of the Republic of China in the first half of the 20th century, where tradition and modernity coexist in a sophisticated decorative language.
