Dish c. 1770

This "Dish" is a blue and white porcelain piece from the Worcester Royal Porcelain Company, produced around 1770. The dish features a central scene of horses grazing in a field, bordered by a decorative rim of stylized plants and trees. The design, painted in the underglaze blue technique, exemplifies the Chinoiserie style prevalent in European decorative arts during this period, reflecting the fascination with East Asian aesthetics and motifs. The dish is currently part of the collection at The Art Institute of Chicago, showcasing the artistic legacy of the Worcester Royal Porcelain Company.
