Compare the present lot with an undecorated meiping in the Gotoh Museum, Japan, published with a 15th century date illustrated in Sekai Toji Zenshu, vol. 14, no. 230.

The decorative theme and arrangment of the elements are both consistent with those found painted in underglaze-blue wares; cf. a blue and white meiping dated to the Yongle period with a cloud collar on the shoulder and a narrow band of scrolling foliage at the waisted foot, illustrated in Mingdai Qinghua Ciqi Fazhan Yu Yishu Zhi Yanjiu, p. 321, fig.39.
