Plate 1728 - 1742

This plate, created between 1728 and 1742, features a design by the renowned Italian Baroque painter Salvator Rosa. The central image depicts a scene of two figures, a man with a staff and a figure with a turban, in a landscape setting, with a castle visible in the distance. The plate's rim is adorned with a delicate floral pattern, complementing the central scene. This plate serves as a fascinating example of the artistic exchange between the decorative and fine arts, illustrating the impact of Rosa's work on ceramics. The image is reminiscent of Rosa's landscapes and figures, often characterized by a dramatic chiaroscuro and a sense of romanticism.
