唐三彩と奈良三彩

これら2つの陶器の壺は似ているように見えるかもしれませんが、一つは日本起源で、もう一つは中国起源のものです。大胆な配色は鉛系釉薬を用いて生み出されました。日本の壺は、8世紀に製作された模造品の三色焼き(中国語で三彩として知られる)の現存最古の事例です。もう一つは7世紀の唐代(618-907年)起源のもので、中国各地の古墳から発見されたものと似ています。奈良三彩と呼ばれるこの国産の壺は、中国の技術に日本の銅緑釉薬を組み合わせたもので、中国の技術がどのように取り入れられたかを示しています。


Tang-Dynasty and Nara-Period Jars

These two ceramic jars may look similar, but one is Japanese and one is of Chinese origin. Their bold coloring was created using lead-based glazes. The Japanese jar is the oldest extant example of an imitation three-color ware (known as sancai in Chinese) made in the eighth century. The other is a Tang dynasty (618–907) original from the seventh century, similar to ones which have been discovered in numerous tomb sites across China. The domestic jar, called Nara sancai, combines Chinese techniques with Japanese copper green glaze, demonstrating how Chinese technology was adapted.
