Comments:Harrison-Hall 2001:Although dating ‘min yao’ blue-and-white wares is difficult because of the probable prolonged use of similar designs, this bowl can be dated by stylistic comparison to a smaller cup with similar decoration, which was recovered from the cargo of the Witte Leeuw which sank in 1613 (see BM 1921.1107.1 ).
