Sotheby's New York, 21st September 2005, lot 146.

See a related late Shang dynasty example with a similar form and decoration, but without a foot like the current vessel, preserved in the Xinxiang Museum, Xinxiang, illustrated in Zhongguo qingtongqi quanji [Complete collection of Chinese bronze vessels], vol. 7, Beijing, 1997, no. 86. Fanglei vessels with high feet seem to be mainly excavated in the southern regions, such as a late Shang dynasty fanglei cast with a high foot with ridges, preserved in the Wuhan Museum, Wuhan, and illustrated in Zhongguo chutu qingtong qi quanji [Complete collection of bronzes unearthed in China], Beijing, 2018, vol. 11, no. 85. Compare another late Shang dynasty fanglei with a high foot, formerly in the Fujita Museum, Osaka, sold at Christie’s New York, 15th March 2017, lot 524, and an early🌠 Western Zhou dynasty example, sold in our London rooms, 16th November 1973, lot 6.

蓋呈四阿房頂🦩式,頂築同樣四阿房頂式捉手, 蓋四面飾獸面紋,下緣一周淺浮雕旋火紋,蓋子母口,罍身方口,直頸飾對鳥紋,鳥喙分叉,斜肩每面飾旋火紋成對,左右兩側鑄獸首啣環鋪首,前後正中飾凸起獸面,胸部四面分飾對稱鳳鳥紋,其下一周獸面蕉葉紋,正面下腹飾一獸頭耳,外撇高圈足,其上四面各飾獸面紋ꦯ。 


可參考河南省新鄉市博物館藏一件商晚期獸面紋方罍,形制、紋💙飾與本件頗似,惟無圈足,見《中國青銅器全集》,北京,1997年,卷7,編號86。此類高圈足方罍似乎集中出土於南方地區,如湖北省武漢博物館藏一件商晚期方罍,高圈足,出戟,見《中國出土青銅器全集》,北京,2018年,卷11,編號85;又可比較出土於湖南之藤田美術館舊藏皿天方罍,亦是高圈足,2017年3月15日售於紐約佳士得,編號524。此類高圈足方罍還可比較一件西周早期史作彝,售於倫敦蘇富比1973年11月16日,編號6。
