It is unusual to find dishes of this pattern in this size. However, a similarly decorated dish from the Yokogawa Collection and now in the Tokyo National Museum is illustrated in Old Oriental Ceramics, Tokyo, 1953, no. 320. Other smaller dishes have been included in the exhibition, Ch'ing Porcelain from the Wah Kwong Collection, Hong Kong, 1973, Catalogue, no. 86; and in the Hong Kong O.C.S. exhibition, Ch'ing Polychrome Porcelain, 1977, Catalogue, no. 64. Compare, also, the smaller dish in the National Palace Museum, Taiwan, Illustrated Catalogue of Ch'ing Dynasty Porcelain, pl. 92; and another in the Umezawa Kinenkan Museum, illustrated in Toji Taikei, no. 46, pls. 61 and 62.
