This dish was made in a phase of Iznik production during which the potters began to have greater artistic independence and developed styles that were ‘simple in structure but rapid in painting’ (Nurhan Atasoy and Julian Raby, Iznik, The Pottery of Ottoman Turkey, London, 1989,p.115). Our dish does not have an extended rim like most of the dishes from this period. The rimless form is known from the 1540s and is sometimes referred to as a sahan, a term found in archive documents to designate something topped with a metal cover (Atasoy and Raby, op.cit,, p.44).
The dish comes from the same Private American Collection as lots 31-39 in this sale. As with those lots, we have very precise provenance details for the group. This Iznik dish was bought in Mashhad in the early 20th century, a clear demonstration of how the wares of Iznik were collected and exported to Iran as well as to Europe.
