Saucer with flower sprays c. 1760 - 1800

This small, delicately painted saucer, dating from the late 18th century, is a charming example of European porcelain from the Ansbach region. The piece is decorated with a simple but elegant floral motif, featuring a central cluster of flowers and leaves, as well as smaller sprays of flowers around the rim, all painted in soft, muted colors on a white ground. The intricate detail of the flowers, including delicate petals and stylized leaves, showcases the skill of the artist and the artistry of the period. The saucer, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the enduring beauty and craftsmanship of European porcelain.
