Although China witnessed similar transition from imperial monarchy to
communist rule, the sacred symbol of imperial rule, as part of the
Chinese cultural heritage, was not removed or replaced. That symbol,
depicted on stamps and as ornaments of all imperial architecture, is
the mythological Chinese dragon, reimagined with the horns of a stag,
ears of a bull, eyes of a rabbit, claws of a tiger and the scales of a
fish, all on a long serpentine body. Instead of individual coat of
arms representing different royal houses, Qing dynasty emperors
adopted the imperial dragon symbol of the preceding Ming dynasty in
order to show that they have inherited the Mandate of Heaven to rule
over China after coming to power by invasion and occupation as
northern barbarians.
Whether any first parental generation precursor, franked with imperial
Qing dynasty dragon stamp issued in 1878 (Large Dragon), 1897
(inscribed Imperial Chinese Post), or 1898 (inscribed Chinese Imperial
Post), exist or not is an unanswered question. Presumably if one or
more do exist, it (or they) will be sequestered in private
collection(s) and only will appear briefly during exhibition events.
What I can show is a second generation (or F1) precursor and a clear
path towards F1 and F2 maximum cards. This second generation (or F1)
precursor (Figure 3) shows the Temple of Heaven in Peking (meaning
Northern Capital in Chinese, Peking is the romanized version of
Beijing). To be more precise, the central building is the Hall of
Prayer for Good Harvests decorated with dragon and phoenix motifs
throughout, most prominent being the lavishly carved marble dragons
found in the middle section of the staircases used to ascend the
three-level round marble platform, each level surrounded by carved
marble railings. This structure is only part of the Temple of Heaven
imperial religious complex.
Qing dynasty Chinese Imperial Post in 1909 issued three Temple of
Heaven stamps showing the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests. Franked
with all three stamps, a F1 maximum card was realized in 1910 and sent
from Peking to France (Figure 4) and completed a seamless transition
(or evolution) from precursor to maximum card in the same generation.
After the end of the Qing dynasty in 1912, many Temple of Heaven
stamps have been issued: for example in 1923 (four stamps issued by
the Republic of China), in 1956 (issued as S15-4 by the Peoples
Republic of China), in 1997 (four stamps issued as 1997-18, showing
additional structures of the complex), in 2004 (issued as 2004-16 to
promote 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing), etc, all with F1 or F2
maximum cards realized, some have triple concordant postmarks (1997
and 2004). |
