What lovely bottles!!
And Pin I think you have made a brilliant observation! It makes total sense now!
I have been drawn to the smaller YST bottles because they remind me so much of the Ye Zhongsan the elder bottles - there is a confidence in the brushwork and a boldness of color that is extremely pleasing to me - and the ease and natural position of the characters in the bottle story is lovely.
So nice to see all these bottles. I very much want to own one!!!
