This Meissen porcelain saucer, dating from 1740-1755, features a delicate landscape scene in black and white. The central image, framed by a decorative border of stylized foliage, depicts a pastoral scene with figures and trees. The saucer's intricate design, typical of Meissen's early work, showcases the high skill of the manufactory in both porcelain production and decorative arts. The saucer is an example of the Rococo style, known for its elegant curves and playful asymmetry.
