A plate with the 'music party' scene is illustrated in D.S. Howard, The Choice of the Private Trader: The Private Market in Chinese Export Porcelain illustrated from the Hodroff Collection, London, 1994, p. 88, no. 75, where the author notes that it is one version of at least six scenes of "musicians in gently amorous situations – all after European originals of the period 1735-50." Several examples of these are illustrated in F. & N. Hervouët and Y. Bruneau, La Porcelaine des Compagnies des Indes a Décor Occidental, Paris, 1986, pp. 184-185, nos. 8.4-8.8. Hervouët and Bruneau also illustrate a plate painted with the same courting-couple scene as appears on the present soup plate, op. cit., p. 144, no. 7.9.
