This 16th century Italian tin-glazed earthenware plate, or maiolica, depicts a winged cherub in the center surrounded by an elaborate border of stylized floral motifs. The vibrant blue and yellow glaze, characteristic of Maestro Giorgio Andreoli's work, adds a striking contrast to the delicate figure of the cherub. This "Plate" is part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York City, showcasing Andreoli's mastery in the art of maiolica production.
