This 16th-century ceramic dish, "Dish with Allegory of Summer," created by the famed French Renaissance artist Bernard Palissy, showcases his masterful use of enameled earthenware. The central figure, likely representing the season of Summer, stands amidst a lush landscape, emphasizing Palissy's fascination with naturalism. This detailed relief sculpture, housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to Palissy's groundbreaking work in ceramics, combining artistic skill with scientific observation.
