Notes
A deep plate with sloping walls on a flat base, decorated in red with a metallic luster. On it I painted a large plant with carnations coming out of a small vase that looked like a tall cup. On its inner surface, successive circles were drawn, from which plant leaves emerged in the form of parallel lines resembling bird feathers. A carnation flower was placed between them, while the floor was filled with dots. The outer edge was marked with light engraving, above which a wide parallel line with a metallic luster was drawn.
