Fiziksel açıklama
Fritware bowl, in high quality painting. A phoenix or simurgh flies towards a flowery Kraak branch springing from the side of a hillock on which stand three deer. The central one is spotted. Above two large birds fly over a treble balustrade with three lotus finials. A double-stemmed tree with bare branches leads to three small birds frolicking in front of a double-stemmed pine tree under a moon and clouds. And finally three more deer prance on a rock with a large central double peach composition and a minimal balustrade in the background. The inner rim band consists of a series of stylised cash motifs. The well is plain. The central roundel repeats the outer scene with three deer, a balustrade, a flowery kraak stem, two birds in flight, cloud and rock formations with a cascade added to the right. Painted in blue and outlined with black under a clear glaze. Imitation Chinese square mark in black.
