Description:
Blue-and-white plate, made after Dutch pottery models. The large plate has a raised rim with moulded gadroons, following a Dutch faience shape which itself is derived from metalwork. It is heavily potted and decorated in underglaze blue. The central medallion shows a figure of Bacchus, the god of wine in Roman mythology, in a Dutch-style interior with a tiled chequered floor. The god is shown naked except for garlands of grape vine round his head and his hip, raising a goblet in one hand and holding a bunch of grapes in the other, and is standing between a large wine jar and a table with a bottle and another goblet. The medallion is enclosed within a broad border of scrolling vines.

Comments:Harrison-Hall and Krahl 1994:Interiors with tiled floors as they are common in Dutch houses and often depicted in Dutch paintings, are also often seen on blue-and-white faience plates made at Delft in the Netherlands. Such a dish, also with a gadrooned rim but of octagonal form (not unlike BM Franks. 734+) is in the Musee de Cinquantenaire, Brussels (Hudig, 1929, pl. 205). An identical Chinese dish, also from the Ionides collection, is in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London (Hervouet and Bruneau, 1986, no. 13.9); another is in the Mottahedeh collection (Howard and Ayers, 1978, vol. I, pl. 34).
