Fiziksel açıklama
Plate of fritware, with brown edge, painted in blue and black under a clear glaze. On the inside and below the rim is a narrow band of scrolling leaves. The rest of the well and the centre are busy with a new style of design making use of strands of wash. A quadruped is perched on a central rock, head stretched up, and surrounded by a two-tier landscape with rocks, balustrades, leafy branches, perching birds and one more small quadruped. The upper landscape is underlined by these irregular vertical strands of a light blue wash. Five double-peach sprays decorate the outside with dashes as dividers. Mark of a simulated Chinese character in black.
