Subject:porcelain plaque
Posted By: Simonne Tue, Jun 24, 2014 IP: 87.66.227.29

Hello,
I would like to know your opinions concerning this porcelain plaque, what do you think, a fake or a real piece? Thank you in advance for your comments.

The signature purports the brush was wielded by Wang Yeting, but the quality of the landscape makes a poor case for authenticity. Probably contemporary, whereas Wang was a member of the famous early 20th century group, the "Eight Friends of Zhushan" at Jingdezhen.


Best regards,

Thank you Bill, for your opinion. The frame is very old and the painting is in relief. Maybe the photos are not so good. Could you, please, translate the inscription? Part of a poem?
Thank you again.

In my opinion, the apparent age of a frame and the content of an inscription contribute little to the process of judging the age of something otherwise so stylistically removed from the body of work of its purported creator. Please see the links for a sampling of actual porcelain paintings by Wang Yeting.

Agree with Bill, this is a recent imitation purporting to be by Wang Yeting
