Beschreibung:

A PAIR OF FAMILLE ROSE INSCRIBED 'LANDSCAPE' PLAQUES SIGNED BY CHEN YAOXING (1924-1995) AND DATED BY INSCRIPTION TO 1992 One plaque is decorated with a mountainous riverside landscape scene featuring magnificent, tall pine trees in the foreground and figures at leisure, below an inscription eulogising the beauty of the pine trees, followed by a date which may be translated as 'autumn month of the cyclical year of renxu' which corresponds to 1992 and the signature of the artist Chen Yaoxing. The other plaque is decorated with another mountainous landscape scene, depicting a waterfall, figures crossing a bridge to reach thatched huts and small boats in the distance. The inscription to the top right of the depicted scene praises the beauty of the multiple colours displayed by the mountains and describes how the waterfall flows into the river, followed by the same date and artist's signature. Both plaques are set with elaborately carved and pierced hongmu frames in imitation of bamboo, detailed with grape vines. 29 ½ in. (75 cm.) x 20 in. (50.5 cm.) including hongmu frames
