Label copy

A landscape with figures of Immortals is carved into the red glass layer on this white glass vase. The contrasting colors and raised relief accentuate the intricate grottoes, mountains, and foliage. Bearing the mark of the Qianlong emperor on its base, the vase was likely a product of the imperial workshops.
