This six-sided flowerpot is decorated with paintings of pomegranates along its bottom edges with the character for “longevity” (shou) painted in between. The six faces all bear images that celebrate longevity. The figures are vivid and life-like; the brushwork is exquisite. This work is a fine example of Kangxi era large-sized polychrome porcelain.
