A Chinese famille rose censer

18th century, of circular form on three ruyi-shaped feet, painted with figures under a pine tree in front of a pavilion, in a mountainous landscape, inscribed with a seal reading 'Banshan', six-character Jiajing mark to base,
7.6cm diameter
7cm high
'Banshan' (Halfway up the mountain) is a hao that was used by several artists. It was a particularly popular name, as it could be associated with the Chinese concept of the 'middle way'. The most famous of these artists was Tang Ying (1682-1756), the Superintendent of the Imperial porcelain works in Jingdezhen.
