[Wide color figure pattern plate]
Wide color figure pattern plate, Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, height 2.7 cm, caliber 12.6 cm, foot diameter 7.3 cm
Open plate, shallow arc wall, circular foot. White glaze is applied inside and outside the body. The outer wall of the plate is light and plain, and the inside of the plate is painted with a semicircular portrait of a European woman. The strokes are exquisite, the image is lifelike, and there is a strong three-dimensional sense.
This type of porcelain plate was specially made for export to meet the needs of the European market for Chinese porcelain. The required white porcelain body was fired in Jingdezhen, while the colored painting and firing were completed in Guangzhou, hence the name “Guangcai”.
