Comments:Harrison-Hall 2001:Large numbers of these dishes were commissioned by the imperial court during the Hongzhi reign. Similar Hongzhi marked dishes are in numerous public collections, including the National Palace Museum, Taipei, and the Hong Kong Museum of Art. Dishes of this type were also made in a smaller diameter, such as an example in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Their production continued in the ensuing reign of the Zhengde emperor. An example of these later dishes can be found in the Meiyintang Collection. Similar dishes were also made with green enamel over the biscuit areas.
