Jar, fritware painted in underglaze blue and black, Iran, Safavid period, 1600-1650
Tarihsel bağlam
Persian blue and white ceramics were primarily produced during the rule of the Safavid Dynasty in Iran (early 16th Century to early 18th Century). Iranian potters were almost exclusively preoccupied with making wares in the styles of Chinese blue-and-white porcelain, some close copies and some more fanciful. Echoes of earlier traditions remained, in particular in the black-under-turquoise colour scheme that dates back in Iran to the end of the 12th Century. Towards the end of the 16th Century there was a widening of interest, that blossomed in the 17th Century to a wide range of styles and techniques in which blue and white played a dominant but not exclusive role.

Fiziksel açıklama
Jar of fritware, painted in cobalt blue and outlined in black under a clear glaze. The neck is decorated with a scroll and quartered flowers under an everted rim. Five flower-and-leaf panels cover the shoulder, with small lotus panel dividers. Irregular clouds hang over birds in various positions amidst clusters of long reeds, rocks, a double-stem pine tree, flowers and two moons. A band of overlapping panels and a reserve-painted band indicates the base. There is a Chinese square mark in black.
