Fiziksel açıklama
Plate of fritware, painted in cobalt blue under a clear glaze. Four composite islands with buildings separated by four pairs of boats occupy the flange within a bracketed rim. The well is plain. Again in the centre two islands with buildings are depicted on above the other with two boats, two small clouds and a dot in between them. On the outside six panels with lozenges in a cross of dots are separated by leaf substitutes in the shape of elongated question marks within narrow panels. The glaze is patchy. Imitation Chinese "tassel" mark in blue.
