A famille rose mythological cup and saucer

專家說明

This mythological scene is inspired by an engraving by G. Duchange in the Prentenkabinet, Rijksmuseum Amsterdam, after a painting by Corregio in the Staatliche Museen in Berlin. For a similar decoration on a saucer dish, see Hervouët et Bruneau, La Porcelaine des Compagnies des Indes, Paris, 1986, p. 301, fig. 13.38. The engraving is illustrated as a comparison with a similar saucer in the collection of the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam in Lunsingh Scheurleer, Chinese Export Porcelain, London, 1974, pl. 227, 228.
