In the collection, importance is given to the porcelain objects: monochrome, blue-and-white and multicoloured. This is a multicoloured plate, with glaze covering its entire surface. The result is meticulous ornamentation showing a court scene – a subject borrowed from literature, greatly popular in scroll painting.
