Chinese Famille Rose Verte Porcelain Plate, Kangxi period (1662-1722), Dia. 14 ½ in. (36.8 cm.)
Ex: Private European Collection
Decorated with a scene of figures in a mountain pass. All finely painted in bright famille verte enamels. The mountain scene is a classic decoration likely based upon a scene from a famed classic tale or painting. The decorative style of this plate represents Chinese taste placed upon a more Western style plate presumably made for export to Europe. In the earlier stages of the Kangxi period- such combinations are encountered as the trade and decorative tastes between East and West were developing.
