Bowl 1715 - 1730

This Meissen porcelain bowl, produced between 1715 and 1730, features a delicate and intricate design. The exterior is decorated with a chinoiserie scene, a popular style in Europe during the 18th century that drew inspiration from East Asian art and culture. This scene depicts figures in a landscape setting, adorned with stylized flora and fauna, highlighting the European fascination with the exotic East. The bowl's white porcelain base and the subtle gray tones of the design create a visually appealing contrast, characteristic of Meissen's renowned craftsmanship. The bowl's presence in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, is a testament to its artistic significance.
