拍品专文

This dish, with its palette of cream, deep blue, green and delicate gold decoration, is typical of Venetian enamels from the end of the 15th and beginning of the 16th century. The technique is thought to be derived, ultimately, from glass objects created in the Near East (Verdier, op. cit., no. 3, p. 5). A limited number of domestic and ecclesiastical examples are known in museum collections including the Walters Art Gallery (Verdier, loc. cit.) and the Martin D'Arcy Gallery of Art, Chicago (loc. cit.).
