DESCRIPTION

Antique Chinese porcelain plate finely painted in cobalt blue underglaze on a pale white ground.

An appealing example of early Qing export porcelain.

COLLECTOR’S NOTE

Blue and white landscape porcelains from the Kangxi period were widely exported and admired for their refined painting and balanced compositions. Scenic lake and pavilion subjects drew inspiration from classical Chinese painting traditions. Plates with hand painted underglaze cobalt decoration remain highly collectible among Qing porcelain enthusiasts.
