A large and unusual Chinese famille verte dish. Kangxi
Decorated in the famille verte palette to the interior with three buddhistic lions frolicking on rocky promontories alternating with three horses prancing on stylized circular waves, all encircling a central medallion of a carp leaping from froth-capped waves, the everted rim decorated with shaped panels of various sea creatures reserved against a iron-red and gilt floral diaper pattern.
