A fine and rare Chinese famille rose porcelain "Fishing" plate, Yongzheng, 1722-1735

Condition: Excellent, absolutely perfect.

A closely related Yongzheng porcelain plate with a different fishing

scene is illustrated in: The Choice of the Private Trader, The Private

Market in Chinese Export Porcelain, illustrated from the Hodroff

Collection (David S.Howard, 1994) Page 70, item 49. The author states: "... the

comparative scarcity of such pieces does not indicate large consignments

in the period immediately before the Dutch initiative with Cornelis

Pronk".
