Cover of a coffeepot with a landscape c. 1775 - 1785

This is a coffee pot from the Ginori factory, active in Doccia, Italy, from the 18th century. The piece is decorated with a pastoral scene, depicting figures in a landscape with a river and trees, and a small town in the background. The scene is hand painted in polychrome enamels, with fine details. It reflects the popularity of Rococo motifs and themes, with the focus on graceful and elegant design, and the use of soft pastel colors. This piece is a fine example of the Italian ceramic tradition of the 18th century.
