A small blue and white jar with the monogram IHS mirrored, Qing dynasty, 19th Century.

Baluster shape after a European faience model, deocrated with the monogram IHS. Interesting ist that the lettering has been mirrored by the Chinese artist. Height 14.5 cm.

Wear.

Provenance

From the Collection of a Swedish Connoisseur of Asian Works of Art. This is part of a collection, a collection that was assembled not only with great care, but also with a deep curiosity and passion for learning - a true academic collection. The collector has been actively buying and studying Chinese porcelain since the early 1970’s.

Literature

A version of the IHS (or JHS) monogram of the name of Jesus (i.e. the traditional Christogram symbol of western Christianity), derived from the first three letters of the Greek name of Jesus, Iota-Eta-Sigma (ΙΗΣΟΥΣ).
