A Chinese famille verte-imari dish decorated with European figures. Kangxi period
The center painted in tones of iron-red and gilt with two westerners riding in a Chinese chariot pulled by spotted ponies, an attendant shielding them with a parasol and a lattice-fence in the foreground, all within a petal-molded border reserved on a verte cell-diaper ground.
