The subject is possibly after an engraving by Bernard Picart (1673-1733). Cf. J. G. Phillips, op. cit., p. 75, pl. 9 for a dish painted with the same subject and p. 140, pl. 58 for a tea service. Cf. also F. et N. Hervouet et Y. Bruneau, op. cit., p. 131, figs. 6.47, 6.48, 6.49 and D. Howard and J. Ayers, op. cit., vol. II, p. 271
