拍品专文

No other large dish or charger of this design appears to be published. The most closely related extant example to this lot, is a tall baluster vase from a private Parisian collection, enamelled on biscuit yellow ground with a very similar subject-matter of pheasants on rockwork amidst lush flowering plants, illustrated by M. Beurdeley and G. Raindre, Qing Porcelain, Famille Verte, Famille Rose, Fribourg, 1986, pl. 107.
