An earthenware bowl, the exterior painted with a yatai matsuri procession of numerous figures pulling ceremonial wagons and carrying a model of Mount Fuji, many holding fans painted with the setting sun, some holding banners, the lower part painted with panels of birds among flowers on a millefleurs ground. The interior with butterflies beneath trailing flowers and foliage. In a discreet effort at self-advertisement, one of the banners carried in the procession shown on this vase has been inscribed Dai Meizan (Great Meizan). An almost identical bowl was exhibited at the Japan-British Exhibition, London 1910.
