Why are the porcelains of Chenghua in Ming Dynasty and Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty the most respected?

When it comes to Ming and Qing porcelains, there is a saying in the porcelain industry that "the culture is clear and the Yongzheng is clear", which means that among the porcelains in the Ming Dynasty, the porcelain fired in Chenghua period is the best, and among the porcelains in the Qing Dynasty, the porcelain fired in Yongzheng period is the most classic. Is that really the case? The two periods of Chenghua Blue and White Bowl in Kowloon in Ming Dynasty and Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty are not long, one is only 2 1 year, and the other is only 13 years, which is not very long compared with the history of nearly 300 years in Ming and Qing Dynasties, but they are both very important periods in porcelain production. Next, we analyze them one by one: the Palace Museum Chenghua Doucai Lingyun Cup in the Ming Dynasty, followed by Orthodox, Jingtai and Tianshun. The following three dynasties, Hongzhi, Zhengde and Jiajing, were called "blank period" because the porcelain of the official kiln year was not found in the orthodox, Jingtai and Tianshun dynasties, but the firing technology of porcelain was not undeveloped at that time. Until Chenghua official kiln resumed firing, the style of porcelain has changed from the heroic and unrestrained period of Yongle and Xuande to light, beautiful and elegant. The Palace Museum's collection of Ming Chenghua blue-and-white grotesque tea-patterned bowls The bottom of the Ming Chenghua blue-and-white grotesque tea-patterned bowls is not only a change in style, but also very top-notch in other aspects: First, the porcelain tires in Chenghua years are light and thin, the enamel is thick, and the bottom tires and glazes are also very fine. Secondly, the blue and white porcelain wares in Chenghua period are famous for their elegance and quietness, and they have the hazy beauty of clouds and fog barriers. 3. Doucai porcelain in Chenghua period is one of the most precious varieties in Chenghua porcelain. Chenghua's doodles are few, but everything is fine. During this period, the paintings of Doucai porcelain were simple, with flowers and birds, small and unique shapes, and few large pieces of porcelain. Fourthly, the font of porcelain calligraphy in Chenghua period is tall and vigorous, and the inscriptions are mostly "Ming Chenghua Year System". Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cylinder Cup The Palace Museum has a bottle of gourd with Qing Hualien pattern in Ming Chenghua. During the whole Ming Chenghua period, porcelain was top-notch in Ming Dynasty in terms of firing technology, glaze color and painting, so "Ming Shi Hua" was worthy of the name. Porcelain in Yongzheng period of Qing dynasty, like porcelain in Chenghua period, presents a different style from before. Due to the high aesthetic level of Yongzheng himself, the porcelain fired during Yongzheng period also showed a high level of craftsmanship. The Palace Museum of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty collected the official glaze vase of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty. During the Kangxi period before Yongzheng, porcelain was mostly famous for its rich atmosphere, while during the Qianlong period after Yongzheng, porcelain style was complicated and gorgeous. Only the porcelain of Yongzheng period is the most aesthetic, not only beautiful in shape, but also light and handsome in shape. During this period, small porcelain was light and handsome, while large porcelain was dignified and elegant. Qing Yongzheng pastel teapot The Palace Museum collected the Qing Yongzheng Doucai Ruyi ear garlic bottle. The representative porcelains of Yongzheng period collected by the Palace Museum include multicolored porcelains, doucai porcelains, pastels and other different kinds of colored porcelains. Compared with other periods in the Qing Dynasty, the patterns on colored porcelain are more similar, the painting themes are richer and the colors are more elegant. Compared with the Doucai porcelain in Chenghua years, it has made great progress in decoration, color and filling, and the glaze used is thinner, so the color on the porcelain is softer. Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty imitated Hua Dou Cai Gao Shi Cup, and the Palace Museum collected it as Hua Dou Cai Gao Shi Tu Cup. The firing style of Ming Chenghua and Qing Yongzheng porcelain in the Palace Museum is different from that of the previous era, and it has reached an unprecedented level in porcelain firing, glaze use and painting style. So we can really see the highest level of porcelain firing in Ming and Qing dynasties from the porcelain of these two periods.
