Plate 1765 - 1775

This 18th-century porcelain plate, crafted by the Nymphenburg Porcelain Manufactory, showcases the elegant floral designs that were characteristic of European porcelain during this period. The delicate hand-painted flowers, including roses, lilies, and other blossoms, are scattered across the white surface, accented with delicate insects and a gilded edge. The plate, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the Nymphenburg Manufactory, a significant center of porcelain production in Germany.
