    2016杭州G20峰会展出 敞口,浅腹,圈足,珐琅彩装饰。盘沿敷金彩,盘内壁口沿下依次为白地绿彩回纹、绿地白色双重海水纹,并以锥花工艺着重表现海水波涛汹涌之意;盘内心,以轧道工艺刻划纤细卷云纹的胭脂红釉地上,一条正面形象的绿彩立龙居中,周围八条游龙环绕,头向均朝向中心;五颗矾红龙珠分散于盘内,神龙须目怒张,阔口长须,五爪锐利,九龙穿梭于祥云间,娇健飘逸。五颗龙珠分别代表“金、木、水、火、土”龙珠在前,祥云环绕,沉雄古逸。九龙戏五珠,亦是帝王九五至尊的体现。 盘外壁,刻划席纹的紫红釉地上,团寿纹、蝠纹相间排饰,近足处饰海水纹,足外壁饰回纹。圈足底部施白釉,书 “大清乾隆年制” 青花六字三行篆书款。该器物形制庞大,盘内装饰繁密,布局得当,疏密有致。 拓展知识点: 作为中国封建帝王之象征,龙的形象常用来代表帝王至高无上的威力与统治力。以苍龙为心,周饰八龙,龙姿神武,其形各异,但龙首皆拜于苍龙,似有四海域国臣服中原王者之意,而九龙之数,正合古人“九龙吉祥”之意。 据说,此盘为唐英花十年心血,在乾隆二十年时研制而成,本准备奉献乾隆五十大寿,可此时乾隆还只有四十四岁,唐英却实在无力坚持下去,只好提前敬奉皇上,也作为自己一生的收官之作。珐琅彩制作集当时一流顶级高手而为之,是那个时代最高水平的艺术精品,彰显了中华民族传统文化的最高境界。 珐琅彩: 珐琅彩被称为“世界上最奢侈的艺术品”。它是清代康熙、雍正、乾隆三朝著名的宫廷御用瓷器,“庶民弗得一窥”。传世珐琅彩瓷大多为清宫秘藏,只属皇帝拥有,极少流传宫外。至民国初年紫禁城开放后,外界才得以窥探珐琅彩真面目,旋即成为藏家鉴赏追逐的目标。
