Canton Porcelain, the gem of painted porcelain art, embodies the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures and innovations to the utmost. In this episode of “The Amazing Heritages”, we invited Mr. Frank van Beuningen, former Consul General of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Guangzhou, to embark on the journey of creating Canton Porcelain with our host, Vivian Ma together, under the guidance of Ms. Tan Qiying, the fourth-generation inheritor of Canton Porcelain. However, Mr. Frank van Beuningen keeps the process shrouded in secrecy, not allowing any sneak peeks. What masterpiece has he created in the end?
Many Canton Porcelain pieces convey messages through flowers, bridging the world through their blossoms. Flowers are equally important in the Netherlands. Mr. Frank van Beuningen invited Vivian to the world of Dutch flowers, brimming with Dutch charm, to explore the stories behind Dutch tulips with the Dutch floral artist Mr. Pieter Teisman. What sparks will fly between them with different philosophies of floral art?
Welcome to the colorful world of Canton Porcelain and Dutch Tulips!
