Dish with flowers and birds
Not on view
A Japanese Kakiemon-style bird-and-flower painting has been used here by a Dutch painter to decorate a Chinese porcelain blank. The grouping of a pair of magpies, plum blossoms, and bamboo is a traditional Chinese image, which forms the rebus "the couple delights in double happiness" (zhumei shuangxi).
